Brighton host Aston Villa at the Amex on Wednesday night, in a game that will go a long way towards deciding which of the two sides qualify for Europe next season. The Seagulls are currently in 7th, just one point and two places outside of the Champions League places, whilst Villa are a further two points back in ninth.
The two teams had contrasting fortunes in their weekend FA Cup quarter finals. Brighton fell to an agonizing 4-3 penalty shootout defeat to Notts Forest after a 0-0 draw in regulation time, but Villa completed a routine 0-3 away win at Preston to reach the semi finals for the first time in nine years. Both teams come into this game in excellent overall form, the Seagulls have picked up 13 points from their last five Premier League games, whilst Villa are on a five game winning run in all competitions.

Our Brighton vs Aston Villa Prediction
This is a huge game for both teams, but we're giving the Seagulls the slight edge due to their excellent recent record at the Amex, plus Villa's less than convincing away league form. It is also important to remember that Villa have a jam packed fixture schedule over the next few weeks, as they are still competing in three separate competitions. That means manager Unai Emery may elect to rotate his squad for this fixture, and put out a slightly below strength starting eleven. Our prediction for Brighton and Hove Albion vs Aston Villa is: Brighton to win and over 2.5 goals.
