Brighton vs Brentford Predictions

• Over 2.5 goals has landed in each of Brighton’s last four home games.
• Brentford have lost four of their five league away games this season.
• Danny Welbeck has scored six goals in his last six league appearances.

Goals on the cards at the Amex Stadium

Brighton and Brentford head into gameweek 12 with almost identical records, but the Seagulls put some air between the sides when they meet at the Amex Stadium on Saturday.

Fabian Hurzeler’s side played out a goalless draw at the London Stadium before the international break, but 11 of their 16 points have been won on home soil.

Their last outing here was a 3-0 win over Leeds, leaving them unbeaten in front of their own fans and with each of their last four here featuring at least three goals.

Welbeck to star as Seagulls soar

That spells bad news for the Bees, who have won only three points on their travels this season and have conceded an average of two goals per away game.

Over 2.5 goals has landed in four of their seven competitive trips and the most recent meeting between these sides produced six goals, so backing over 2.5 goals appeals.

However, the Seagulls are the side backed to be celebrating at the final whistle. Brentford have lost four of their five league away games this season, including a 2-1 defeat at Sunderland, while Brighton have scored exactly twice in three of their last four at home, two of which ended 2-1.

Danny Welbeck stands out as the likely scorer of one of Brighton’s goals, with the veteran striker notching six times in his last six Premier League appearances and scoring four goals in seven previous games against the Bees.
