H2H: Brighton vs Sheffield Utd - Result Prediction (Premier League

Preview and Teams Comparison.

Brighton & Hove Albion may only be unbeaten in their past three games (W1, D2) but that represents their longest run of this Premier League (PL) campaign without a loss. They will be particularly proud of keeping four clean sheets this term, with that tally bettered by just six other PL clubs. Only two clubs have managed to defeat Brighton at the Amex Stadium this season in PL action. These were the only home encounters in which the ‘Seagulls’ have failed to score. Additionally, two of their three home successes have come with a clean sheet, but they have been winning at half-time in only one of eight at home.

Sheffield United are currently on a run of only one loss in their previous ten matches (W4, D5). They do take their time to settle into individual games though, considering that they have scored double the amount of second-half goals compared to their first-half tally (14-7). Manager Chris Wilder will be especially proud of the Blades’ unbeaten away record this season (W2, D6). Additionally, the visitors haven’t conceded a single PL away goal beyond the 76th minute this campaign, while no other outfit has tallied more away draws than Sheffield Utd, with those draws averaging exactly 2.0 total goals per-match.

Players to watch: Brighton striker Neal Maupay has scored for three games running and his side are yet to lose a PL game when he’s netted (W4, D3). Booked in his last two games, Sheffield midfielder Oliver Norwood is one yellow away from suspension, with all four of his bookings coming in the first half – three before the 20th minute!

Stat attack: Brighton are yet to win a PL game this season when conceding the first goal (D2, L6). Four of Sheffield United’s last six matches have contained exactly two goals. Three of the Blades’ last four away games have seen them win one half with a clean sheet.
