We are expecting a packed house in Merseyside for the first match of the season and both the Toffees and Seagulls will be desperate to get the new campaign off to a winning start. Let's get into the match prediction.

Everton - Brighton: Form Analysis
While Everton finished in a fairly lowly 15th place last term, they can still be proud of their accomplishment considering they were docked two points for breaching profit and sustainability rules (PSR) and still managed to end well clear of the drop zone.
The Toffees had a record of 13 wins, nine draws and 16 losses, scoring 40 goals while conceding 51. At Goodison, Sean Dyche’s men managed eight wins, four draws and 17 losses in 19 games, and ended the term with five consecutive wins on their home patch.
Notably, Everton scored the fewest goals of any side that avoided relegation last season!
Meanwhile, after a spectacular 2023-24 campaign in which they finished sixth and qualified for the Europa League, Brighton experienced a significant drop-off last season, falling five places into the bottom half.
The Seagulls managed 12 wins, 12 draws and 14 losses last season, while they posted an away record of four wins, six draws and nine losses in their 19 matches on the road. Fabian Hurzeler’s side managed just one victory in their final 10 away games of the season.
Both matches between these sides last season ended in 1-1 draws.

Everton & Brighton Squad Analysis
Everton are set to start the season without five players due to injuries, including Nathan Patterson (hamstring), Jarrad Branthwaite (groin), Youssef Chermiti (foot), James Garner (calf) and Seamus Coleman (calf).
Abdoulaye Doucoure and Dominic Calvert-Lewin were the Toffees’ joint top scorers last season, though the latter is being heavily linked with a move away from Goodison Park before the transfer window closes.
It will be interesting to see how the hosts fare without Amadou Onana, who was sold for £50m this summer!
Brighton are also down five players through injury in Solly March (knee), Evan Ferguson (ankle), Pervis Estupiñán (calf), Julio Enciso (knee) and Bart Verbruggen (knock).
João Pedro was the Seagulls’ top marksman last season, notching up nine goals, but he will likely be competing for game time this season after the club confirmed the signing of Yankuba Minteh during the summer break.
Brajan Gruda and Ibrahim Osman were also signed from Mainz and Nordsjaelland respectively, and will be in line to make their debuts in this match.
Everton - Brighton Key Points
- Everton won their final five home matches last season.
- Everton did not concede a single goal in their last five home games.
- Both matches between these sides last season ended in draws.
- Brighton & Hove Albion won only one of their final 10 away games last season.
- Brighton & Hove Albion are winless in their last three matches against this opponent.

Our Everton vs Brighton Prediction
It is a little bit surprising to see Everton enter this match as the underdogs given how good they were at home toward the end of last season when they beat the likes of Brentford and Liverpool during the run-in.
Brighton’s away record was among the worst in the top flight and they have not gotten the best of the Toffees in their last three attempts. We fancy the hosts to avoid defeat in this one as well. Our Everton vs Brighton & Hove Albion prediction: Double Chance - Everton Win or Draw!
