Prediction for Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers
With the addition of Facundo Buonanotte, Brighton & Hove Albion, one of the league’s top teams, appears to have found yet another jewel. Given their present trend, it wouldn’t be unexpected to see them play European football soon, albeit it could be too soon for this season.
The Seagulls have won two of their previous five league games and are presently ranked seventh in the league. Even if players like Moises Caicedo and Alexis MacAllister are traded this summer, Brighton & Hove Albion will be able to quickly replace them.
On the other hand, Wolverhampton Wanderers are now ranked 13th in the league. Although they have won three of their previous five league contests, the squad’s depth and attack continue to be issues. Come the summer, the wolves must deal with such problems.
We anticipate Brighton & Hove Albion to triumph.
Brighton & Hove Albion will defeat Wolverhampton Wanderers by a score of 2-0.
