Brighton sit 2nd in the Premier League on 22 points from 10 matches, having scored 26 and conceded 7. On the model's scale they rate 1.40 in attack and 0.68 in defence (1.00 = an average top-flight side, lower defence is better), against Premier League averages of 1.09 and 0.92: above the division's average at both ends. Across their last 5 league matches they have 4 wins and 1 defeat, most recently beating Brentford 2-0 at home. That is 2.20 points a match, scoring 2.60 and conceding 0.70 per game across 7 wins, 1 draw and 2 defeats. That leaves them 5 points behind Arsenal at the top, in a table of 20. Among the 20 rated sides in the division that is the 2nd-best attack and the 2nd-best defence. They scored in 4 of those 5 and kept 4 clean sheets. Next they travel to Hull City in the Premier League on 22 November 2026, a match the model gives them 50%.
