Brighton vs Everton prediction and betting tips on February 24, 2024
One of the matches in the 26th round of the English Premier League will take place on Saturday at the Amex Stadium, where the local Brighton will host Everton. Here's the prediction for this match from the experts at Dailysports.
Brighton
The European autumn has weighed heavily on Roberto De Zerbi's team. Consequently, despite a promising start to the current Premier League campaign, Brighton currently occupies only the seventh position in the league table after 25 rounds, accumulating 38 points, which is six points less than the fifth-placed Manchester United. Last weekend, Brighton dismantled Sheffield Wednesday's defense in an away encounter with a resounding 5-0 victory. This win marked their second victory in the last three league matches. It's noteworthy that Brighton has lost only one match out of 12 at home in the current season.
Everton
It has been a very challenging season for the Toffees. The issue lies not in the results or the level of play but in the deduction of 10 points from the team for a breach of financial fair play regulations. With 30 points to their name, Everton would have comfortably been mid-table, but in reality, they find themselves in 17th place with 20 points, only staying out of the relegation zone on goal difference. The team's recent results have exacerbated the situation, with Everton failing to win in the league since mid-December, a streak spanning eight matches. In their last match, the Toffees hosted Crystal Palace and managed only a 1-1 draw. Interestingly, Everton has garnered more points away from home than at home this season, with five wins and five losses in 12 away matches.
Interesting Facts and Head-to-Head History
