Brighton take on the visitors West Ham in the round 26 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, February 4th at Amex Stadium (Brighton).
Brighton goes into this match in good spirits! Just recently, the team ended their two-match winless streak, beating Stoke City 1-0 away from home and advancing to the quarterfinals of the country's cup. In the league, the "Seagulls" are also doing well - they are in eighth place in the table. They are only four points behind seventh place, which would allow them to play in European competition, and the team in that position, Fulham, has played three more matches than Brighton. In their last three home matches in the Premier League, the "Seagulls" have only conceded one goal. Yes, they lost 0-1 to the "Villa" in the last match, but they beat Liverpool 3-0 and Bournemouth 1-0 before that. I think Roberto De Zerbi's men will come out on top against West Ham.

West Ham Unite are fighting to stay in the Premier League this season. In 24 matches, the team has suffered 13 defeats, and they are only two points clear of the relegation zone. Yes, West Ham has been consistently adding points to their tally recently, and they have only suffered one defeat in their last four matches. However, West Ham are simply terrible away from home, only Leeds and Nottingham Forest play worse away from home. In 13 league matches away from home, they have only managed one win and three draws, suffering eight defeats.
In this match, the "Seagulls" are the favorites for me, and I only expect a victory from the hosts. They look much better than the "Hammers" in this season. Yes, West Ham is fighting for survival, and the away points are very necessary for them. But the hosts are also equally motivated. After all, they can qualify for European competition for the first time in their history. Brighton is simply stronger than their opponents, and the home field advantage is on their side. In the first round of this season, the "Hammers" even lost at home to this opponent (0-2). West Ham's last visit to the "Seagulls" also ended in defeat for the team (1-3). I think the hosts will be stronger again!
Prediction for the match: Brighton to win.
