Brighton take on the visitors Norwich in the round 31 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, April 2nd at Amex Stadium (Brighton).
The Seagulls have already begun to be seen as a solid mid-table side in the Premier League. Moreover, everyone assumed that just this season, the work of Graham Potter would lead to tangible results and we will finally se break through. The start was promising: in August-September, in the first 4 matches of the championship out of 5, we managed to win. But then Brighton “retrained” into a team that consistently “stamps” draws. And from mid-February, a full-fledged "pit" began. There have been exclusively defeats in the Premier League in their recent six matches. Moreover, they conceded at least 2 goals per match, and scored only once during this entire period.

"Canaries" in this regard are true to themselves. They change coaches but don't deviate from their "football lift" characterization. And now the change of Farke to Dean Smith gave only episodic effects. The latest success was a draw against Crystal Palace in early February. After that, the team was kicked out of the cup, and as for the Premier League, they have lost 6 times in a row. Yes, everything was not always hopeless, and, for example, in the last round, McLean was able to level the score in the 91st minute. But still, Leeds then managed to score again and snatch victory. In any case, Norwich now have a modest 17 points, despite having played 29 matches. For comparison, Everton, which is on the "border", 17th position, 25 points and 2 games to plya on their hands. Do Pukki and company believe that there is still a chance of "survival"?
The most recent head-to-head in the reverse fixture ended with a draw while Brighton had won the match before that back in the season 2019/20. Both teams are not in the position to be considered as favorites but Brighton should definitely end their scoring drought while matches with Norwich often turn to be quite eventful.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored.
