Brighton vs Wolves Prediction & Betting Tips (26 October)

Under the leadership of a new coach this season Fabian Hurzeler, Brighton are off to a very good start to the championship. Indeed, the Seagulls are currently 5th in the Premier League and seem to have perfectly digested the departure to OM of tactician Roberto De Zerbi. Undefeated during the first 5 days, they then suffered their only setback, on the Chelsea pitch 4-2. Since then, Brighton has brilliantly resumed its march forward with successes against the big names Tottenham 3-2 and Newcastle last weekend 0-1 . Since its return to the elite in 2018, Wolverhampton has never been worried by relegation.

Unfortunately, that could well change this season, given this catastrophic start to the championship. Matheus Cunha's teammates are quite simply last in the Premier League and have a record of 1 draw and 7 defeats. They pocketed their only point at Nottingham Forest at the end of August 1-1. Since then, Wolverhampton have lost to Newcastle 1-2, Aston Villa 3-1 , Liverpool 1-2, Brentford 5-3 and Manchester City last weekend 1-2.

Several elements are missing in Brighton this weekend . This is the case of offensive captain Joao Pedro (2 goals in 4 PL matches), the experienced Webster and Milner, the summer recruit O'Riley and the long-term absentee March, all injured. Danny Welbeck (5 goals in PL) stands out at the start of the season. It was also he who offered the victory during the last day on an offering from the French international Espoir Rutter (2 goals and 1 assist in PL). On the side of Wolverhampton, the goalkeeper n °1 Johnstone, the starting defender Mosquera, the Metz-trained midfielder Boubacar Traoré, the Korean Hee-chan Hwang as well as the replacement attackers Kalajdzic and Gonzalez, all insufficiently recovered from their physical problems.

The young French defender Meupiyou is, for his part, uncertain. The offensive duo should still be composed of Matheus Cunha (3 goals in PL) and Strand Larsen (3 goals and 1 assist in PL). Wolves have the worst defense in the championship.
