Latest football match prediction: Wolverhampton vs Brighton
Wolves played very well against Tottenham Hotspur in the last round, and it seemed that Santiago Bueno's 54th-minute goal would secure a crucial victory for the struggling team. However, Spurs scored in the fourth minute of added time in the second half, leveling the score at 1-1 at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Vitor Pereira's side are still waiting for their first Premier League win of the season, but the draw against Tottenham also gave them their first point after a run of five consecutive defeats since the start of the season.
Wolves are currently bottom of the Premier League table, but they are only four points behind Nottingham Forest, who are in a safe position. A win this weekend would significantly change the situation ahead of the October international break.
However, Wolves haven't beaten Brighton in the Premier League since December 2021. Last season, they lost 0-2 in the same match. Although they beat Brighton in the FA Cup in February 2024, in the Premier League, the "Wolves" often struggle against this opponent.
Meanwhile, Brighton entered the match in high spirits after an impressive performance. Fabian Hurzeler's team had just come from behind to beat Chelsea 3-1 last weekend, following up on a victory in the League Cup against Barnsley.
After six rounds, Brighton have two wins, two draws, and two losses, earning eight points and sitting 10th in the table. Their two defeats were away from home (against Everton and Bournemouth), but the team also beat both Chelsea and Man City, and drew with Tottenham.
Last season, Brighton finished in eighth place, and this season they are still expected to compete in a similar group, and may even dream of a European cup spot.
Brighton have only lost once at Molineux in the Premier League, so they have reason to be confident. However, the visitors should also be wary of Wolves' recent form against Tottenham.
