West Ham United vs Brighton & Hove Albion Prediction and Betting Tips | 21st August 2022
West Ham United will be looking to finally put points against their name on the Premier League table as they host Brighton & Hove Albion at the London Stadium on Sunday.
The Hammers have suffered successive defeats in their first two matches of the new Premier League season. They kickstarted the new campaign with a 2-0 loss against Manchester City. But it was the 1-0 loss at the hands of Nottingham Forest last weekend that will worry David Moyes.
They had a very good campaign last time around but seem to be struggling to find their groove in the opening stages of the new season.
The 3-1 win over Viborg in the first leg of the Europa Conference League playoffs might have done their confidence some good. But they will have to put their noses to the grindstone to get the better of Brighton this Sunday.
Graham Potter's side beat Manchester United 2-1 at Old Trafford to get their 2022-23 Premier League campaign off to a promising start. They played out a goalless stalemate against Newcastle United last weekend but were, by far, the better team.
Having picked up four points from their first two fixtures, the Seagulls are currently in eighth place in the Premier League table. This should be an interesting contest between two sides that harbor European dreams.
