Newcastle United F.C. vs Brighton & Hove Albion F.C. Prediction 18 May 2023

In the postponed match of the Premier League matchday 25, the ambitious Newcastle and Brighton will face off.

With 66 points in the asset and a goal difference of 63:31, Newcastle are in third place and for the first time in many years claim a direct spot in the Champions League. However, after triumphs in duels with Tottenham (6:1), Everton (4:1) and Southampton (3:1), the Magpies unexpectedly stumbled with Arsenal (0:2) and Leeds (2:2).

In a similar period of time, Brighton dealt with Wolverhampton (6:0), Manchester United (1:0) and Arsenal (3:0), while losing to underdogs Nottingham (1:3) and Everton (1:5). Now the Seagulls single-handedly hold the sixth position, having 58 points with goal statistics of 66:45.

Both teams have serious attacking potential, and at the end of the season it is increasingly difficult for them to find the optimal balance between destruction and creation. Our prediction: the meeting between Newcastle and Brighton will be quite effective.
