Newcastle vs. Brighton: Match Preview, Odds & Prediction

Newcastle United will attempt to commence a new winning streak in the Premier League when they face Brighton on Matchday 8, following their share of the spoils with Everton before the international break. The Magpies are enthusiastic about advancing toward a Champions League berth and are expected to implement an attack-oriented strategy in Saturday's match. Both strikers Alexander Isak and Callum Wilson are considered doubtful for the game, as is Lewis Miley, a talented midfielder. However, the host team does not have any suspended players.

The Seagulls, on the other hand, were experiencing a rollercoaster of emotions before the international window. They shared the spoils with Nottingham Forest, lost to Chelsea, and defeated Tottenham. Brighton, however, are not considered to be excellent travelers, and we are skeptical that they can disrupt Newcastle United's celebration at St. James' Park. James Milner, a veteran midfielder, has recovered from his injury, which is a positive development for the visitors.

Previous Matches and Head-to-head

Newcastle will anticipate favorable tidings upon their return from the international break. Newcastle expects the return of Alexander Isak, Callum Wilson, Lewis Miley, and Martin Dubravka from injuries before their match against Brighton. However, Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles are definitively excluded, at least until the new year.

Brighton is also anticipating that the international hiatus will be advantageous to them. Simon Adingra, James Milner, and Solly March may be able to return to the Seagulls in time for their journey to the north. Matt O'Riley's debut is still a few weeks away, and Jan Paul van Hecke, Joao Pedro, and Adam Webster are also unavailable.
