Brighton & Hove Albion vs Bournemouth Prediction
Brighton & Hove Albion have been the talk of the town for some time now, and have once again enjoyed a bright start to their league campaign. They sit fifth on the league table, have registered four wins out of five league games, and have scored plenty of goals so far.
Once again, they have a squad full of talented youngsters; it would not be surprising to see one of them fetch the club another £100 million soon. Right now, it looks very likely that that player will be striker Evan Ferguson; the 18-year-old is now regarded as one of the best young strikers in the league.
Bournemouth, on the other hand, are 15th in the league and are yet to win a game. They made some smart signings this summer, and appointed a talented young manager in Andoni Iraola, but are yet to find their feet this season. Bournemouth should have enough to survive this season, but it is one thing for their survival to hinge on their performances and a completely different thing for it to hinge on the fact that there are three worse teams than them in the league, at least on paper. They need to start picking up points soon.
We expect Brighton & Hove Albion to win here.
Prediction: Brighton & Hove Albion 1-0 Bournemouth
