Brighton welcomes Southampton to the AMEX in a Premier League clash, with the two teams in very different form this campaign. Brighton sits fifth in the league with an unbeaten home record, while Southampton is last but one and has secured just one win all season. Despite Brighton's historical struggles against the Saints, recent form suggests a strong case for a home victory. Brighton remains unbeaten at home this season, with a 3-3-0 record, including a win over Manchester City. With players like Joao Pedro, Kaoru Mitoma, and Danny Welbeck in attack, Brighton has scored consistently at home, averaging nearly two goals per game. Despite its strong possession displays, Brighton has not kept a clean sheet in its last five outings and will therefore have their vulnerable areas exposed for Southampton to exploit. Southampton has lost all six road matches this season, leaking an average of two goals per match. The team had two against Liverpool in the last game, but it has the weakest attack in the league, having only managed nine goals in 12 matches. Defensively, they have leaked 24, including many high-scoring defeats to let their opponents getaway. Brighton scored in each of their last six matches across all competitions, and Southampton conceded two or more goals in its last three meetings with Brighton. Brighton, therefore, is at a clear advantage given their strong home form and attacking strength. While Southampton may find the net given Brighton's recent defensive record, it's unlikely they'll leave the AMEX Stadium with points.
布莱顿欢迎南安普顿做客美国运通球场,这两支球队本赛季的状态截然不同。布莱顿以主场不败的战绩排在联赛第五,而南安普顿则排在倒数第二,整个赛季只取得了一场胜利。尽管布莱顿历史上与圣徒的斗争,最近的状态表明一个强有力的案例,主场胜利。布莱顿本赛季在主场保持不败,取得了3胜3负0负的战绩,其中包括战胜曼城。在像佩德罗、三oma和维尔贝克这样的攻击手的帮助下,布莱顿在主场进球稳定,场均接近2球。尽管布莱顿拥有强大的控球能力,但在最近的五场比赛中,布莱顿并没有保持不失球,因此他们的脆弱区域将暴露给南安普顿。南安普顿本赛季6场客场比赛全部输球,平均每场输掉2个球。在上一场对利物浦的比赛中,球队进了两个球,但他们的进攻是联赛中最弱的,在12场比赛中只进了9个球。在防守端,他们已经泄露了24次,其中包括许多得分很高的失败,让对手逃脱了惩罚。布莱顿在最近的六场比赛中都有进球,而南安普顿在最近三场与布莱顿的比赛中丢了两个或两个以上的球。因此,布莱顿凭借他们强大的主场状态和进攻实力,处于明显的优势。考虑到布莱顿最近的防守记录,南安普顿可能会进球,但他们不太可能带着积分离开AMEX球场。
