In my opinion Newcastle have really good chances to make at least one point in today's match up.

There is great news for Newcastle - their best player in current season (according to the ratings) Saint-Maximin back to the training and probably he will play today.

Brighton is still without their two key players - central defender Webster and central midfielder Lallana, when those two players played last time then Brighton won against Watford. Since then they have run of 3 consecutive losses.

Brighton lost last three matches with more than one goal difference: 0:2 on away against United, 0:3 at home against Burnley and 0:2 at home against Aston Villa. They looked poor at both ends of the pitch. Brighton had problems with creativity, in those matches they had in average 0.6 expected goals scored per game. In current season they have only 7.7% shots conversion - they never had lower on Premier League level. Defensive formation without Webster looked very unstable and opponents were able to convert even not so dangerous situations into goals.

Newcastle had extremely poor first half of the season, but they were very unlucky in many matches. Newcastle dropped already 21 points from winning position in current season, more than any other team. Finally results arrived. They didn't lost in last 7 matches in a row and only Manchester United have longer unbeaten streak in whole league (8 matches). In table for only last 8 matches they are top7 team. Defensive formation looks great, they conceded only 3 goals in 2022. Players are full of confidence and after comfortable win on away against Brentford now they coming back to St. James'Park where they won last two matches in a row. For sure they wants to go with momentum front of home crowd.

Newcastle manager Eddie Howe have excellent Premier League record against Brighton - in his previous job on Bournemouth bench he won 4 of 6 matches against them and I believe he have all required tools to continue good streak against them today.

在我看来，纽卡斯尔在今天的比赛中有很好的机会至少得一分。

纽卡斯尔有个好消息——他们本赛季最好的球员(根据收视率)圣马克西明回到了训练中，他可能会在今天上场。

布莱顿仍然缺少两名关键球员——中后卫韦伯斯特和中中场拉拉纳，这两名球员在上次布莱顿战胜沃特福德的比赛中都有出场。从那以后，他们已经连续3次亏损。

布莱顿最近三场比赛都输掉了一个以上的进球差:客场0:2输给曼联，主场0:3输给伯恩利，主场0:2输给阿斯顿维拉。他们在球场两端都表现不佳。布莱顿在创造力方面存在问题，在这些比赛中，他们的平均预期进球只有0.6个。在本赛季，他们的投篮命中率只有7.7%，在英超联赛中从来没有这么低过。没有韦伯斯特的防守阵型看起来非常不稳定，即使不是很危险的情况下，对手也能够转化为进球。

纽卡斯尔在前半个赛季表现非常糟糕，但他们在很多比赛中都很不走运。纽卡斯尔已经从本赛季的冠军位置上掉了21分，比其他任何球队都要少。最后结果了。他们在最近的7场比赛中没有输掉，只有曼联在整个联赛中保持了比这更长的不败纪录(8场)。在过去的8场比赛中，他们都是前7名。防守阵型看起来不错，他们在2022年只丢了3个球。球员们充满信心，在客场轻松战胜布伦特福德后，现在他们回到了圣詹姆斯公园，在那里他们连续赢下了两场比赛。毫无疑问，他们想在主场球迷面前表现出一种冲劲。

纽卡斯尔主教练埃迪·豪在对阵布莱顿的比赛中有着出色的记录——在他之前的工作中，他在伯恩茅斯板凳席上赢得了对阵布莱顿的6场比赛中的4场，我相信他已经具备了在今天对阵布莱顿的比赛中保持良好势头所需要的所有工具。
