This Premier League clash sees West Ham United hosting Brighton Hove Albion. Recent form and injury data provide some key insights for our prediction. West Ham's recent form shows a mixed bag. Their last five matches highlight a struggle to consistently secure wins, with a single victory against a struggling Fulham side. Their defeats, particularly against Manchester City, point to defensive vulnerabilities when facing stronger attacking teams. The Hammers have also conceded goals in their home matches. Key injuries for West Ham might further weaken their defensive setup. Brighton's recent performances appear slightly more promising. Although they have also experienced defeats, Brighton have demonstrated an ability to score goals and remain competitive. The team's away form includes draws and a narrow loss. The injury situation for Brighton involves several players, but the squad depth might allow them to absorb these absences. Considering the match odds, the bookmakers favour Brighton. With an Asian Handicap of Brighton -0.25, and given Brighton’s stronger performance and defensive abilities, it’s reasonable to predict Brighton winning or a draw. We’re leaning towards Brighton's win. The Over/Under market at 2.75 goals suggest a match with a moderate number of goals. Given West Ham's recent matches, which tend to have a lower goal count, and Brighton's away form, the Under is more probable. The match result prediction of away win combined with the under goals reflects the expectation of a tight match, which Brighton is likely to take the lead. Overall, Brighton are favoured to win this match.
