Both to score
Remarkably, Brighton and West Ham have both scored in their previous six h2h meetings, while all these fixtures have ended in a draw.
We think this game could continue that trend.
1X and Total Goals over 1.5
Both sides still have objectives.
The visitors must win at Brighton and hope Manchester United draw or lose at Crystal Palace, as they could overtake Red Devils on goal difference to move back into the Europa League spot. Meanwhile, the hosts could still secure eighth place, which would be their highest-ever PL finish.
In addition, Brighton are undefeated in all nine of their PL meetings with West Ham (W3, D6).
Preliminary review and match prediction for Brighton vs West Ham
Brighton are on a very good run at the moment, having taken eight points from a possible fifteen in their last five league fixtures.
The Seagulls are one of the surprise sides of this campaign, a team that were fighting to avoid the relegation zone in the previous two seasons, at this moment, are fighting for a top 10 finish. It should be noted that Graham Potter’s team are finishing the season strongly, with only one defeat across their previous eight. They have beaten Tottenham, Arsenal, and Manchester United during that time.
In addition, Brighton’s matches have averaged 2.22 total goals per game, which is the second-worst record in PL.

On the other hand, West Ham played out a draw with the league’s leader Manchester City (2:2) in their previous PL fixtures.
The Hammers have already booked 7th place, which will let them qualify for the Europa Conference League, thanks to Liverpool’s Carabao Cup winner’s spot being passed on.
However, they still have a chance to get a Europa League ticket, as they are two points behind 6th placed Manchester United heading into the final day of the season.
To point out, inconsistency has been the Hammer’s downfall of this season. After the massive victory over Lyon (3:0) in Europa League 1/4 finals, West Ham went on a five-game winless streak with four losses in a row, which were ended two weeks ago against Norwich (4:0).
