England Premier League
Sunday 8th December 2019
Kick off at 4.30pm GMT
Venue: Amex Stadium
Match Preview:
Brighton will want to carry the momentum from their fantastic victory at Arsenal in midweek with another win here.
Graham Potter’s side were very impressive against a very poor Arsenal side to be fair but not many teams come away from the Emirates with all three points, and in fact that was Arsenal’s first defeat at home in the league all season.
Brighton’s form is a very mixed bag though and they have lost 3 of their last five matches. A win would shoot them into the top 10 though so they will have that motivation. At home the club lost their last match against Leicester by 2-0 but before that had gone on a 3 game winning streak. Perhaps their biggest problem is that they have only scored 10 goals in front of their own fans, but recent wins against Everton and Tottenham should give them cause not to be worried about who they face at home.
Wolves had climbed up to 5th place before Saturday's games were played, and are in their best form of the season. This is the Wolves of last season now and they look super confident. They easily disposed of West Ham in their last game winning 2-0 and have won 3 of their last four games.
This is a win that Wolves need as they are 6 points behind Chelsea but that gap could be shortened and Chelsea of course are in 4th place so there really is all to play for.
On the road they have only earned 10 points from a possible 21 however recent away form has improved and they are unbeaten in five games, their problem has been too many draws, 4 from 7 games so far.
Team News:
Brighton: The club have no new injuries coming into this game
Wolves: The club have no new injuries coming into this game. Willy Boly and Morgan Gibbs-White remain injured.

In 15 years Wolves have only won once here.
Brighton vs Wolves Prediction:
Brighton will certainly come into this match with a lot of confidence after the Arsenal win. But one wonders just how poor Arsenal are at this moment. Brighton are coming up against a very strong Wolves side in very good form.
This will be a close game but we are going to opt for Wolves to get something out of it, their form is just so strong at the moment. The odds look very good value even with the draw covered with a 'push'.We also expect a lively game that could well contain goals despite recent history being very low on goals between these two teams, Potter's style of play is different to previous Brighton managers and therefore recent history on goals could be about to change.
