Brighton and Hove Albion vs Everton 08.05.2023 Prediction: English Premier League

Match Overview

High-flying Brighton and Hove Albion play Everton in a game that could well define which way their season ends up going. Coming into this game on the back of a rather fortunate victory they managed over Manchester United midweek owing to a stoppage-time Alexis Mac Allister penalty, Roberto De Zerbi will know that they need to carry the momentum forward.  

Key Highlights

More than the last-minute win against Manchester United, it is the 6-0 thrashing that they meted out to Wolves in the game prior to that which will give Brighton confidence to take Everton on. For their part, the visiting side are ranked in the 19th position of the league table at the time of writing, and another defeat will surely precipitate their demotion into the Championship for next season. Manager Sean Dyche will be aware of that.  

Injury Report

Brighton will have to make do without a lot of players including Tariq Lamptey, Pascal Gross, Joel Veltman, Adam Lallana and Evan Ferguson whereas Everton will only have to deal with the absence of Seamus Coleman, Ruben Vinagre, Ben Godfrey and Andros Townsend.

Prediction

Brighton, quite naturally, appear to be the downright favourites to win this game. They are playing in familiar conditions and are in a rich vein of form at the moment. Everton will have to play out of their skins to challenge the home team, and it remains to be seen if the side from Liverpool will be able to challenge Brighton at all. Another defeat will ensure Everton's relegation chances. We expect Brighton to win this game.
