Each team's starting lineup from their previous match in this tournament is listed.

Brighton

Fabian Hurzeler's side secured 2-1 victories in their last two rounds. They first sensationally defeated Manchester City at home and then won away against Bournemouth. Notably, in the six previous league matches, the club only lost to Liverpool (1-2), achieving four wins and one draw. These results have cemented their position in fifth place, with Brighton trailing third-placed Chelsea only due to a worse goal difference.

Midfielder Carlos Baleba will miss the game due to suspension.

• Both teams scored in 7 of the club's last 8 Premier League games.
• At least three goals were scored in 7 of Brighton's last 8 league matches.
• The number "2" appeared in the final score in 7 of the club's last 8 Premier League games.
• The team scored first in 6 of their last 8 Premier League matches.

Southampton

After their first victory in the current championship over Everton (1-0), the team suffered defeats in the next two rounds. They first lost away to Wolverhampton (0-2) and then, despite leading during the match, were ultimately defeated by Liverpool at home (2-3). It's worth noting that Russell Martin's charges have lost 6 of their last 7 Premier League matches. These results keep the team in the relegation zone, with the gap to the safe 17th place now extending to five points. Additionally, Southampton has scored the fewest goals in the league – just 9.

• The club has won only one of their last 25 Premier League matches (5 draws and 19 losses).
• Southampton failed to score in the first half in their last seven away league matches.
• The team conceded at least two goals in 8 of their last 10 away Premier League games.

Brighton vs. Southampton: Match Prediction

The Premier League table has a clear leader in Liverpool, while the teams from second to fifth places are separated by just one point. Brighton is part of this group and could soon find themselves in second place. The club's current form is impressive, with only two losses after 12 rounds – to Liverpool and Chelsea, both away. At home, Fabian Hurzeler's side remains unbeaten in the current championship (3 wins and 3 draws).

Interestingly, Brighton has managed to defeat top clubs at the Amex this season, but has dropped points against weaker opponents. They have conceded in 7 of their last 8 home Premier League matches. It's likely that the league's underdog will manage at least one goal. Southampton has lost their last nine away Premier League games. The team consistently concedes, often allowing two or more goals, but has scored in 7 of their last 10 away league matches.

I believe the hosts will prevail in this match, but both teams will score. Notably, both clubs have exchanged goals in their last seven head-to-head Premier League encounters. My prediction: Brighton to win and both teams to score – yes
