In the Round of 16 of the FA Cup, Wolverhampton will play against Brighton at their home stadium. The match forecast for these teams has been prepared by analysts at Dailysports.
Wolverhampton
Wolverhampton has become one of the major surprises of the current Premier League season. After the dismissal of Julen Lopetegui and the appointment of Gary O'Neill, many predicted a relegation battle for the Wolves. However, at the moment, Wolverhampton is only 1 point behind Brighton, who occupies the seventh place, allowing qualification for the Conference League. Wolves modestly defeated Sheffield United over the weekend (1-0). In the previous rounds of the FA Cup, O'Neill's team eliminated Brentford and West Bromwich.
Brighton
After a less successful period at the beginning of the year, Brighton has improved and currently maintains the seventh position in the Premier League. Over the weekend, Graham Potter's team played to a 1-1 draw against Everton, following a convincing 5-0 victory over Sheffield United. In the FA Cup, Brighton has already eliminated Sheffield United and Stoke City.
