Brighton

Match Facts

Prediction
- One win in six games for Brighton has halted their rise up the table and the lack of goals in the side is a real worry.
- Albion sit comfortably in mid-table, but they need to make the Amex a fortress in order to reach the play offs for a second successive season.
- Watford are looking good for their own play off push, but two defeats in their last three games has seen them drop out of the top six.
- However the divisions top scorers are always a dangerous side to play and they could earn a valuable away win on the south coast.
