West Ham hosts Brighton & Hove Albion in round 15 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, December 27th at Olympic Stadium (London)
Despite the defeat to Chelsea in the last round, West Ham remains among the contenders for tickets to European club tournaments. Now the team takes tenth place and lags behind the European Cup zone by only four points. Before the match with the Blues, the Hammers hosted Crystal Palace at the Olympic Stadium, and that game ended in a 1:1 draw. In our opinion, a 0:0 score would be more logical, but the fact that the teams shared the points was fair. West Ham has significantly improved its attacking actions and begun to score in almost every match, so it will probably have enough attempts in the game with a middle peasant.

Unlike West Ham, with its Champions League ambitions, Brighton's goals are much more mundane. End Hove Albion would be happy just to stay in the English Premier League for next season. Yes, the Seagulls are not in the "relegation zone now, but they are ahead of it by only two points. Brighton fans are clearly unhappy with the result in the last game. End Hove Albion hosted the weakest club in the Premier League and received a numerical majority after the 40th minute. However, instead of putting the squeeze on the opponent, the Seagulls somehow conceded a goal first. Fortunately, they managed to equalize in the 87th minute and pulled out a draw (1:1).
The difference in the level of clubs is noticeable. Brighton should be praised for its fighting spirit, but the team still lacks class. West Ham looks much more convincing, and the team's shape is certainly much better. The home field will also serve as a small bonus. Therefore, we think that the motivated Hammers will manage to upset the opponents’ goalkeeper at least twice.
Prediction for the match: West Ham to score over 1.5 goals
