Brighton Are Hard to Beat

Fabian Hurzeler’s Brighton have climbed into European contention in the Premier League. The south coast team have won their last three matches and are two points behind the top six.

The Seagull’s upturn started with a 1-0 win at Sunderland and a 2-1 home victory against Liverpool.

Brighton extended their winning streak with a comfortable 2-0 victory at Burnley after the international break. Mats Wieffer scored twice and Brighton were in control with 1.93-0.87 XG.
