Latest Brighton vs Southampton team news
Brighton will be without James Milner (thigh), Solly March (knee), Jack Hinshelwood (knee), and Adam Webster (thigh) for the next match. Ferdi Kadioglu (toe) and Yankuba Minteh (muscle) are doubtful for the game.
However, Lewis Dunk and Tariq Lamptey have recovered and will play. Baleba's suspension could give Matt O'Riley a chance to start in midfield, alongside Yasin Ayari or Mats Wieffer. The attack could continue to feature Joao Pedro as the central striker, with Georginio Rutter on the right wing, although Simon Adingra is in contention.
Southampton are without Aaron Ramsdale (finger), Gavin Bazunu (Achilles tendon), Jan Bednarek (knee), Ross Stewart, William Smallbone (hamstring), and Adam Lallana (hamstring). Striker Paul Onuachu, despite a knee injury, is available to play. Joe Aribo could replace Lallana in centre-midfield alongside Matheus Fernandes, while Adam Armstrong will partner Tyler Dibling with either Cameron Archer or Ben Brereton Diaz.

Latest football match prediction: Brighton vs Southampton
Two weeks after their 2-1 victory over Man City at the Amex, Brighton continued their form, winning against Bournemouth by the same scoreline last weekend. This was their fourth win in their last six Premier League matches, equaling their total number of wins in the previous 19 rounds (7 draws, 8 losses).
Joao Pedro opened the scoring in the fourth minute in his first start since August, before Kaoru Mitoma doubled the lead after the break. Despite Carlos Baleba being sent off in the 58th minute, Brighton held on to the win, although David Brooks pulled one back and Antoine Semenyo nearly equalized.
Manager Fabian Hurzeler was pleased that Brighton are in fifth place, level on points with Chelsea and Arsenal, and just one point behind Man City. However, he stressed the need for the team to remain humble and focused during this crucial period.
Brighton return to the Amex, where they are unbeaten in their last six games and have earned 12 points. Along with Brentford and Liverpool, they are three teams yet to lose at home this season, although their defense remains problematic with only four clean sheets in 15 home games in 2024. The head-to-head history also favors Brighton, with three wins and two draws in their last five encounters with Southampton, including a 3-1 victory in May 2023.
For Southampton, the 2-3 defeat against Liverpool continued their poor run of form. They led 2-1 in the final 25 minutes, but a mistake by goalkeeper Alex McCarthy and a handball by Yukinari Sugawara cost them dearly. This was their 10th defeat of the season, leaving Southampton bottom of the table, five points above safety after 12 rounds of matches.
However, Russell Martin's side still have reason to hope. They have lost only one of their last six away games against Brighton (3 wins, 2 draws) and have scored in all 12 of their Premier League encounters with the Seagulls. Furthermore, Southampton are unbeaten in their last six games played on Fridays (4 wins, 2 draws), promising a difficult match for the home side.
