Five of the last six matches between Brighton and Everton have ended with both teams scoring.

Everton picked up their first win under David Moyes last weekend but now face a trip to the south coast to face a Brighton side that are unbeaten in their last seven matches across all competitions.

Brighton vs Everton prediction: Goals at both ends?

Key Stats

  • Both teams have scored in three of Brighton's last four outings in the Premier League.
  • Brighton have won three of their last six games against the Toffees.
  • The Seagulls have won each of their last three matches in league and cup.

Correct score prediction: Brighton 2-1 Everton

We're expecting a close and competitive 90 minutes between these two clubs as Brighton are unbeaten in their last seven fixtures, though, four of those have ended in stalemates, while Everton look a different team under David Moyes, more attacking and willing to try and win games rather than settling for draws.

  • HOME: 4/6 (1.67) – 60%
  • DRAW: 3/1 (4.00) – 25%
  • AWAY: 19/4 (5.75) – 17.4%

*odds from Ladbrokes, subject to change

Everton preview: Beat Tottenham last weekend

David Moyes lost his first game back in the dugout for Everton at home to Aston Villa but the signs were there that he could get much more out of the players than the previous manager.

In what has to be their best first-half performance of the season, Everton scored three times without reply against a stunned Spurs. Dominic Calvert-Lewen finally found the back of the net after 17 matches without a goal and Iliman Ndiaye scored a lovely solo goal. Spurs did pull a couple of goals back but the Toffees thoroughly deserved their victory.

Armando Broja, Timothy Iroegbunam, Seamus Coleman, Dwight McNeil and Youssef Chermiti could miss the trip to the AmEx on Saturday due to injury.

Predicted lineup: Pickford (GK), Tarkowski, Mykolenko, Branthwaite, O'Brien, Gueye, Doucoure, Mangala, Lindstrom, Calvert-Lewin & Ndiaye

Player to watch – Yankuba Minteh

Yankuba Minteh starred for Brighton last time out against Man Utd, scoring one goal and setting up another, and we have highlighted the young winger as our player to watch on Saturday.

Minteh came really close to signing for the Toffees in the summer but the move broke down when Dominic Calvert-Lewen failed to agree personal terms on a move to St James' Park.

Minteh almost signed for Everton in the summer

The 20-year-old Gambian international has been used as a squad player this season but he has still chipped in with three goals and two assists in the Premier League.
