Brighton & Hove Albion vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Prediction
The teams are two of the lowest-scoring sides in the English top-flight this season. Wolverhampton Wanderers will be without the services of striker Raul Jimenez, so the odds of them finding the back of the net in this game are slim.
The hosts have scored four goals in their last home games, so the game is not expected to be a high-scoring affair. Shane Duffy is suspended for this game. Luckily, the visiting side have not been effective in front of goal in their recent outings, so Graham Potter will be a relieved man.
All things considered, a goalless draw is the most likely outcome from the game.
Prediction: Brighton & Hove Albion 0-0 Wolverhampton Wanderers
