Brighton sit 3rd in the Premier League on 10 points from 5 matches, having scored 16 and conceded 5. On the model's scale they rate 1.38 in attack and 0.82 in defence (1.00 = an average top-flight side, lower defence is better), against Premier League averages of 1.10 and 0.92: above the division's average at both ends. Across their last 5 league matches they have 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat, most recently beating Arsenal 3-0 at home. That is 2.00 points a match, scoring 3.20 and conceding 1.00 per game across 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 defeat. That leaves them 5 points behind Manchester City at the top, in a table of 20. Among the 20 rated sides in the division that is the 4th-best attack and the 6th-best defence. They scored in 4 of those 5 and kept 2 clean sheets.
