Brighton vs Burnley Predictions

• Burnley have failed to win their last ten Premier League matches
• The Clarets have earned four points from their nine away league outings
• Aston Villa are the only visiting team to have won at the Amex this season

Clarets may be able to make their mark

Burnley have predictably found life back in the premier League tough in the first half of the season and it looks unlikely that their fortunes are going to improve dramatically when they kick off 2026 with a visit to Brighton on Saturday.

The only win they have claimed on the road since promotion came at bottom-of-the table Wolves and a 1-1 draw at Bournemouth was the only other occasion in their nine awaydays that they have earned anything.

So the signs are not good as the Cherries are the only outfit who have conceded more than their 24 away goals this term, but it would not be a surprise if they managed to get on the scoresheet as they have netted in each of their eight road assignments since a 3-0 reverse at Tottenham on the opening weekend.

Brighton should rediscover winning habit

Brighton have hit their own trough as a 2-2 draw at West Ham on Tuesday extended their run to six games without a win.

That draw followed a 2-1 defeat at league leaders Arsenal, but they have enjoyed better fortunes at home where title-chasing Aston Villa are the only visiting team to have left the Amex with the points.

Entertaining the second-worst team in the league looks a good opportunity for them to finally get over the line and push up from what is an underwhelming standing of 14th, and the Clarets habit of scoring on the road means a home win can be coupled with both teams scoring to offer an enticing bet.

Welbeck enjoying a fine season

Those looking for a correct-score interest are pointed towards a 2-1 home success, while it is also worth chancing that Seagulls’ top goalscorer Danny Welbeck can increase his eight-goal tally.

The former Manchester United and Arsenal striker has found a new lease of life this term and, after starting against West Ham and scoring from the spot, he could make his mark again.
