Brighton & Hove Albion Betting Odds

In 2023/24 Brighton's season started very well and there were at some points belief that Brighton & Hove Albion could go on to challenge for the Premier League and the odds showed after 6 games where Brighton had 15 points from a possible 18. Unfortunately, injuries struck and a 6-1 defeat to Aston Villa began a run of just 3 wins in 15 games. Despite this, Brighton remained in the top 10 of the table for the majority of the season and although they weren't in the races for European positions, their season wasn't as bad as it could have been.

Brighton will look to kick on in 2024 and we wouldn't bet against them having another good season in 2024/25.

Brighton & Hove Albion Match Betting Odds

Brighton games tend to have a lot of goals. With an average of over 3 goals in their games during the 2023/24 campaign, there were a number of high scoring fixtures. However, consistency has been a big issue for the team. Brighton have demolished Newcastle United, Manchester United and Tottenham Hotspur whilst failing to beat Burnley, Everton and losing 4-0 to Luton Town. If Brighton can find consistency and perform as well against lower teams as they do against the big teams, then they'll begin to rival top four positions.

For a team that averages 3 goals a game (in total), it is bizarre that the club have 3 0-0 draws and failed to score in 6 games this season. BTTS was a constant with Brighton and their opponent scoring in the first 16 games of the season, which was ended by a 2-0 defeat to Arsenal.

Brighton & Hove Albion Transfer Betting

Brighton & Hove Albion may focus on bringing cheaper, young talent to the club and getting bargains for older players but after the sales of Alexis Mac Allister and Moises Caicedo last summer, there are no doubts that Brighton have a little bit of money to spend, so if any betting markets appear for young players, it wouldn't be a bad shout to back them if the players seem like they will fit into Brighton's system.

In the 2024 Summer Transfer window, Brighton's philosophy has followed this structure once again with the signings of Yankuba Minteh from Newcastle United for 30 million and Mats Wieffer signing from Feyenoord from 25 million. They are big money signings for the club but they have the potential to be sold for significantly more if they have a good season in the Premier League. Brighton capitalised on Newcastle's PSR issues with the signing of Minteh and pre-season friendlies have made the Gambian star look like a bargain signing.

Betting on Brighton & Hove Albion in Cup Competitions

Brighton & Hove Albion odds for domestic competitions such as the EFL Cup and FA Cup should be lower than they are but many will agree that Brighton have been slightly underwhelming in these competitions.

They have made the semi-finals of these competitions twice, the first being the 2018/19 FA Cup and the second being the 2022/23 FA Cup. The club haven't made it beyond the fourth round of the EFL Cup since 1978-79 where they lost out to Nottingham Forest. Brighton always look like a good outside bet to win these cups but in reality, they are more likely to focus on the Premier League.

Last season, Brighton made it to the round of 16 of the Europa League, the third round of the EFL Cup and the fifth round of the FA Cup. They lost out to Roma, Wolverhampton Wanderers and Chelsea, so they had some tough competition across the season. After an early defeat to AEK Athens, in the Europa League would have have Seagulls fans worried about their future in the competition but in their final four games, they won all four without conceding a goal to win their group.,
