Key Stats
- Wolves have lost just one of their last 8 Premier League home matches (W4 D3).
- Brighton have drawn 4 of their last 6 Premier League away games.
- There have been over 2.5 goals scored in Brighton’s last 5 away matches.
My exact correct score prediction is Wolves 2 – 2 Brighton. This has all the makings of an entertaining, high-scoring draw. Wolves are incredibly strong and dangerous at Molineux, while Brighton’s attacking philosophy means they always create chances. Both teams are capable of scoring but also show defensive vulnerabilities, pointing towards a share of the spoils.
