With their 16 point advantage in the league table, Burnley fans are hoping to see their team collect maximum points from this game against Brighton & Hove Albion.

We should expect both teams to be fresh and ready for this match, as there is some time since both teams last played. Let's have a look at how the teams are doing!

Burnley can neither be promoted or relegated from Premier League. Brighton is no longer fighting for a cause; they can neither go up or down this season.

Burnley form and stats

8-4-6 (win-draw-lost) are the Premier League numbers at home for Burnley so far this season. Two draws in a row at home now for Burnley.

Burnley enjoyed a nice away win last time out, playing at Norwich City's place. The match ended 2-0 with Chris Wood scoring. In the match before that, Burnley hosted Wolverhampton Wanderers and drew the game 1-1.

Brighton & Hove Albion form and stats

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Brighton & Hove Albion so far with only 16 points returning home. The records show 3-7-8 (win-draw-lose).

Brighton & Hove Albion's last game was the home draw against Newcastle United (0-0). A 1-1 draw at Southampton's stadium before that.

So, this is expected to be a close game, an even contest. Looking at earlier matches with Brighton playing away and similar expectations, we found nine relevant matches. Results were two Brighton & Hove Albion wins, four draws and three defeats.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Brighton as they have only managed to score 17 times from 18 away games in the league. Brighton & Hove Albion have conceded 26 goals in these away matches.
