Brighton vs Wolves Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Prediction published on 27/04/2023, 12:44  by Daniel Ngulu in Premier League Predictions

Brighton will be looking to boost their chances of playing in Europe next season when they welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers in their next game in the Premier League. Brighton have a real chance of contesting for a place in Europa League being five points out, while Wolves will go into this game eight points above the drop zone. The hosts suffered a shock 3-1 loss to Nottingham Forest in their last game, right after their defeat in the FA Cup semi final against Manchester United. Returning home will be a welcome break for them as they seek to push higher their hopes for Europe. Each of their last five matches has been played away from home, with Brighton managing two wins, a loss on post match penalties and two losses in normal time. They come into this game having failed to score in just one of those five matches and at home, they have just one loss in six matches. With three matches in hand on the fifth placed side, Aston Villa, it is hard not to see Brighton as favorites for the Europa League.

Wolves are a much-improved side coming into this game; they have three wins in the last four matches and have lost just once in their last five matches. Coming from a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace, there is a vibe of the team getting very close to survival. For now, they aren’t there yet, but three clean sheets in the last four matches, and having scored in each of the eight five matches is indicative of the improvement at the club. The team has failed to score in just one of the last 10 matches and this is a run they will want to extend into this game. However, their run away from home doesn’t have much to write about, having failed to win any of the last five. Wolves have three defeats in five away matches, conceding twice in each, though they’ve only failed to score twice in 10 away games.
