Brighton vs Fulham Preview

  • Over 3.5 goals
  • Both teams to score

Both Brighton and Fulham enter this crucial Premier League clash with their European qualification hopes still very much alive. Separated by just one place and one point in the table, this fixture could have a big impact on their respective ambitions.

Brighton are in excellent form, having won three consecutive Premier League games while scoring nine goals and conceding just one.

Another victory here would see them win four top-flight matches in a row for the first time since 1981—an incredible milestone for the Seagulls.

However, they face a Fulham side that has historically dominated this fixture, with Brighton failing to win any of their nine Premier League meetings (D4, L5).

That makes Fulham the team Brighton have played the most in the Premier League without winning—a record they’ll be desperate to change.

Marco Silva’s Fulham have also hit their stride at the perfect time. They booked a place in the FA Cup quarter-finals by beating Manchester United on penalties last weekend, which followed five successive away wins in all competitions.

They also remain seven points better off than they were at this stage last season, highlighting their progress under Silva.

Both teams have a golden opportunity to strengthen their case for European football, making this a must-watch encounter at the Amex Stadium.

Key Stats & Facts

  • Brighton are unbeaten in their last three Premier League matches, scoring nine goals and conceding just one.
  • However, they have never beaten Fulham in a Premier League fixture (D4, L5).
  • Fulham have won five consecutive away matches in all competitions.
  • A win here would match Fulham’s best-ever top-flight return in terms of away victories (7).
  • Brighton have scored at least two goals in four of their last five home matches.
  • João Pedro has netted the opening goal in Brighton’s last two league victories.
  • Raúl Jiménez has scored nine goals this season, with all either putting Fulham ahead (6) or drawing them level (3).

Brighton: Can They Finally Break Their Fulham Curse?

Brighton are playing their best football of the season, and with three straight wins, confidence will be high.

Their dominant performances in attack—coupled with a much-improved defensive record—suggest they are well-equipped to take three points here.

However, the Seagulls have never beaten Fulham in the Premier League, and that psychological hurdle could play a role. Brighton will need to be at their best to finally end their struggles against the Cottagers.

Match Prediction

This is shaping up to be a very close contest, with both teams in strong form and competing for European qualification.

Brighton have been outstanding at home, while Fulham have been dominant away from home. The historical record favors Fulham, but Brighton’s current form suggests they have a great chance to end their poor record against the Cottagers.

Expect a closely fought game, but with both sides in great attacking form, goals should be on the cards.

Final Score Prediction: Brighton 2-2 Fulham

  • João Pedro to continue his scoring form.
  • Raúl Jiménez to get on the scoresheet.
  • A draw keeps both teams in the hunt for European football.
