Brighton vs Birmingham Betting Tip Preview:Brighton haven't been playing their best football of late, however with 3 points secured against Blackburn last time out, and two straight defeats for Huddersfield, the pressure for a top two finish will have eased somewhat. Even though they may have been a little nervy recently, their performances at Amex Stadium have still been strong, only losing to Newcastle in their last 17 home league games. Brighton have the strongest home record in the league with 15 wins, 3 draws, and only 2 defeats. This is due to being strong in both attack and defence, scoring 41 goals thanks to the likes of Glenn Murray, Anthony Knockaert, and co, yet still conceding only 11 goals in their 20 home games. Their opponents tonight (Birmingham) have actually scored less goals in all of their 39 league games than Brighton have scored in only their home games. They do have a habit of picking up the occasional surprising result, like 0-0 against Newcastle recently, and a 1-0 win against Fulham not to long ago, however with only 2 wins in their last 20 games in all competitions, they simply don't get enough wins. Therefore against the best home defence in the league, they are unlikely to get a result at Brighton either.
Leicester vs Sunderland Betting Tip Preview:Leicester really are the in-form team in the English Premier League right now, recording 5 straight wins in all competitions, which included wins against Liverpool and Sevilla, and 4 of those 5 wins have been by a two goal margin. They are performing like the Leicester who won the Premier League last season rather than the lacklustre displays of earlier in the season. Jamie Vardy has scored 4 goals in his last 4 premier league appearances, so would be a good choice for an anytime goal scorer selection. Their opponents tonight Sunderland are looking like they are hitting rock bottom now, and i'm surprised Moyes has lasted this long, although i'm not sure a change in manager would make any difference. Sunderland's main problem recently has been scoring goals, having failed to score in their last 5 games, although having said that they have also conceded 9 goals so there are clearly problems in attack and defence. On paper this should be a straight forward 3 points for Leicester, assuming there won't be any more crazy results like many of Saturday's games suffered.
