Brighton & Hove Albion form and stats

With 3 Premier League wins, 5 draws and 6 defeats from their home games, Brighton & Hove Albion are certainly not brimming with confidence. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Brighton & Hove Albion with their five defeats in a row. Not since the Watford game, 32 days ago, have they avoided a loss.

The Brighton crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 0-2 to Liverpool here at The American Express Community Stadium.

A defeat was the result before that one, 1-2 away at Newcastle United.
