Brighton are enjoying great form and after having no midweek assignment, they will be hoping to heap misery on their visitors Leicester City, who have struggled so far in the season. Brighton are coming from a 1-0 win over Brentford, which saw them leap to sixth in the league standings, with nine points while Leicester are ninth with six points. Brighton have four wins in their opening five matches, three in the league and one in the League Cup. They suffered their first loss of the season in their last home game, against Everton and they will hope for better this time. Each of their last four matches have produced under 2.5 goals and four of their last five league matches have also ended in under 2.5 goals. They’ve lost just once in their last seven league matches at home.

Leicester City failed to handle their Europa League match against Napoli well on Thursday, and a game they were comfortably leading 2-0 after 64 minutes, ended 2-2. They had Wilfred Ndidi sent off late and will definitely want to do better here. They have two wins in their first five matches of the season and two losses, with three of their last four matches ending in over 2.5 goals. In their last league game, they fell at home, 1-0 to Manchester City and in this game they will miss a key player in Ayoze Perez, who is serving a suspension. The Spaniard scored the opening goal in the game against Napoli. Leicester have four wins only in the last 10 league matches and have managed just one clan sheet in 10 league games. In their last nine away matches in the league, both sides have scored.
