Brighton vs Aston Villa: Football Whispers Top Tips
We're expecting an entertaining game in the Premier League on Sunday when high-flying Brighton play host Unai Emery's Aston Villa. The Seagulls are in the midst of a winning run right now and will be full of confidence, while their guests beat Man Utd in their last league game and will be looking to make it back-to-back victories at the AmEx.

Over 2.5 Goals
Both of these teams have been involved in exciting and entertaining matches of late, so we have high hopes that Sunday's class will prove to be end-to-end. Each of Brighton's last four matches have produced over 3.5 goals, while each of Aston Villa's last five fixtures have witnessed at least three goals scored, adding plenty of weight to our prediction of over 2.5 goals being scored on Sunday.
Both Teams to Score
Both teams have found the back of the net in three of the last six meetings between these two clubs, and we're expecting the same result this weekend. Both teams have also scored in each of Brighton's last four matches and in both of Aston Villa's last two games in league and cup, both of which were against Man Utd.

Brighton go in search of fourth straight win in all competitions
The Seagulls full to Wolves last time out and managed to return home with all 3pts from a 5-goal thriller. Lallana scored a rare goal to put the visitors 1-0 up after 10-minutes but Wolves responded well with two goals of their own. The sides went in level at the break though thanks to a Mitoma equaliser in the 44th-minute and in the second half, 7-minutes from time, Gross scored to win the game for Brighton.
Brighton Predicted Lineup: Sánchez, Webster, Dunk, Estupiñán, Lallana, Groß, March, Mac Allister, Mitoma, Caicedo & Trossard
Aston Villa put in a great performance at home to Man Utd last weekend as Emery's men claimed a 3-1 victory. Bailey fired Villa in front after just 7-minutes and Digne curled in a free-kick 4-minutes later to make it 2-0. An own goal from Ramsey got Man Utd back into the game on the stroke of halftime but the very same player made it for his error with Villa's third and final goal in the 49th-minute.
Aston Villa Predicted Lineup: Martínez, Digne, Dendoncker, Mings, Konsa, Cash, Buendía, Luiz, Ramsey, Watkins & Bailey
