Brighton and Hove Albion moved up to 13th in the Premier League after winning at Arsenal on Thursday. They host Wolverhampton Wanderers who also won in midweek and are fifth in the league. Wolves had a slow start to the season and were in the bottom three at one stage. The win over West Ham on Wednesday evening extended their unbeaten run in the Premier League to ten games. That's their best run in the top flight since 1972 and in all competitions they have just one loss in their last 16 games. Away form has seen Wolves unbeaten in their last five league games, including a win at Manchester City. Eight of their last ten league games have had under 2.5 goals scored in them.

The home side will have had their confidence boosted by the win at the Emirates. They are four points clear of the relegation zone now and only five points behind their opponents. Home form has been good of late with three wins in a row before losing to Leicester. Mind you, two of the teams they beat (Everton and Tottenham) have since sacked their manager. This is a tough task against a Wolves side that is in good form both in the Premier and Europa leagues. Brighton are difficult to beat at home and the best bet here looks to be for under 2.5 goals to be scored in the match, that's happened in each of the last nine games played between these two sides.
