Thus, Brighton, with an odds of 1.67, has a higher chance of winning in the next game against West Ham United, which is behind with an odds of 4.90.

Brighton started this season well, but the team's performances deteriorated, which puts them now in the 10th spot with 12 wins and 9 losses in 33 matches. Their attacking side is strong, having scored 53 goals this season, which also puts their goal-per-match rate at 1.61, and they have also made 457 shots, out of which 158 remained on target. Along with that, Brighton has also been strong in penalties, scoring 5 this season, and the team also created 69 big chances over all the games. But their defensive side remains a concern, as they have also conceded 53 goals, which puts their goals conceded per match rate also at 1.61. On a positive note, the team has secured 7 clean sheets and 80 saves in 33 matches.

Danny Welbeck has been the key player for Brighton this season, having scored 9 goals and 4 assists in 26 appearances. Pedro will also be having the company of other goal scorers such as Simon Adingra, with 2 goals and an assist in 24 appearances, Yankuba Minteh, with 5 goals and 4 assists in 27 appearances, Georginio Rutter, with 5 goals and 3 assists in 28 appearances, Kaoru Mitoma, with 8 goals and 3 assists in 32 appearances, Carlos Baleba, with 2 goals and an assist in 29 appearances, Jack Hinshelwood, with 2 goals and an assist in 21 appearances, Mats Wieffer, with a goal and 3 assists in 10 appearances, Matt O'Riley, with a goal and an assist in 16 appearances, Ferdi Kadioglu, with a goal in just 6 appearances, Tariq Lamptey, with 2 goals and 2 assists in 13 appearances, Jan Paul van Hecke, with a goal in 30 appearances, and Pervis Estupiñán, with a goal and an assist in 26 appearances. Bart Verbruggen will be the contributor with the gloves, as he holds 6 clean sheets and 77 saves in 31 appearances.

Brighton will be heading into the next game against West Ham United with a formidable lineup, which could help them secure a much-needed win and end their losing streak. In its last five matches, their attacking side has done well, being able to score a combined total of 7 goals, but they have also conceded 13 goals in these games. It is clear that Brighton will need to bring in some improvements to their defensive side if they want to secure a clean sheet win over West Ham United in the upcoming match. Thus, it is unlikely for Brighton to win the next game against West Ham United with a clean sheet, considering the form of its defensive side.

On the other hand, West Ham United will also be eager to turn the tables in this close game, as they stand at the 17th spot with 9 wins and 15 losses, a few points away from the relegation zone. In its last five matches, they have scored a combined total of just 5 goals, but have also conceded 7 goals in these games. This season, they have scored a total of 37 goals, which puts the goal-per-match rate at 1.12, and they have also made 418 shots, out of which 125 remained on target.

However, the team has also managed to grab 6 clean sheets and a massive total of 114 saves across the tournament.

Jarrod Bowen will be the standout performer for West Ham United in the next game against Brighton, having scored 9 goals and 5 assists in 29 appearances. Bowen will also be heading with other scorers such as Niclas Füllkrug, with 3 goals and 2 assists in 13 appearances, Evan Ferguson, with a goal in 20 appearances, Crysencio Summerville, with a goal and an assist in 19 appearances, Michail Antonio, with a goal and an assist in 14 appearances, Danny Ings, with a goal and an assist in 15 appearances, Lucas Paquetá, with 4 goals in 29 appearances, Tomás Soucek, with 7 goals and an assist in 30 appearances, Carlos Soler, with a goal and an assist in 28 appearances, Mohammed Kudus, with 3 goals and 2 assists in 27 appearances, Aaron Wan-Bissaka, with 2 goals and 2 assists in 31 appearances, and Emerson, with 2 goals and an assist in 28 appearances. They also have formidable goalkeepers in the form of Alphonse Areola, who has been strong with 3 clean sheets and 67 saves in just 22 appearances, along with Lukasz Fabianski, who holds 2 clean sheets and 47 saves in just 13 appearances.

Brighton will be playing without João Pedro, who has received a suspension in the previous clash, and willn't be available for the next few games.
