Comments, predictions Newcastle United vs Brighton: Continuous bombardment

Two teams level on points in the Premier League table go head-to-head at St James' Park on Saturday afternoon as Newcastle United host Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Magpies and Seagulls drew 1-1 in the North East in their last meeting in May last season, with Joel Veltman's opener equalised by Sean Longstaff.

Latest Newcastle United vs Brighton team information

Newcastle United will still be without Sven Botman and Jamaal Lascelles (both with anterior cruciate ligament injuries), although Botman has been seen training individually, while Kieran Trippier will be out for the next few weeks with a hamstring injury.

Lewis Miley (back) is yet to feature for the Magpies this season and it is unclear whether the teenage midfielder will be fit to feature this weekend, while Alexander Isak (toe), Callum Wilson (back), Martin Dubravka (knee) and Matt Targett (lack of match fitness) are all doubts.

Valentino Livramento is expected to start at right-back in Trippier's absence, and Anthony Gordon could continue up front if Isak or Wilson are not fit enough to start, while Sandro Tonali is hoping for a third successive start in midfield alongside Bruno Guimaraes and Joelinton.

For Brighton, Adam Webster picked up a hamstring injury in the win over Spurs and has joined James Milner (hamstring), Joao Pedro and Matt O'Riley (both ankle).

Julio Enciso and Pervis Estupinan are both doubts after returning late from international duty in South America, but Hurzeler has confirmed that Jan Paul van Hecke could return after missing the last two games with a groin injury.

Carlos Baleba could also be fit to play despite being stretchered off during Cameroon's win over Kenya last week, after the national team coach insisted the midfielder had suffered only a minor injury.

Latest Newcastle United vs Brighton football review

After winning three of their opening four Premier League games, albeit unconvincingly, Newcastle have failed to win their last three, with a 3-1 defeat to Fulham followed by back-to-back draws with Manchester City and Everton.

The Magpies picked up a valuable point in a 1-1 home draw with Man City before being forced to share the spoils in a goalless draw with Everton in their last game before the international break, with former Toffees winger Anthony Gordon failing to convert a first-half penalty against Jordan Pickford.

Eddie Howe was "disappointed" that his side had "missed a lot of chances" in the opposition half, but he believes there have been "huge strides" defensively and was pleased to leave Goodison Park with their first clean sheet of the season.

The Magpies boss, who is believed to have not been approached by the Football Association to become England's new manager, now finds his side seventh in the Premier League, level on points with Saturday's opponents Brighton, who are sixth and just two points off the top four.

Newcastle will welcome back to St James' Park, where they are unbeaten in 11 games (6 wins, 5 draws) since February, while they are also unbeaten in their last three home meetings with Brighton.

After suffering their first defeat under Fabian Hurzeler at Chelsea (4-2), Brighton showed signs of falling to another London opponent, Tottenham Hotspur, before the international break, when they were 2-0 down at half-time at the Amex Stadium.

However, the Seagulls staged a stunning comeback in the second half, with three goals in 22 minutes from Yankuba Minteh, Georginio Rutter and Danny Welbeck helping them to a memorable 3-2 win, extending their unbeaten home run this season to six.

Hurzeler stressed that he is not too worried about results at this stage of the season and wants to "focus on the process", while he is also looking forward to the "big challenge" his Brighton side face against Newcastle this weekend.

Brighton have been in fine form in recent meetings with Newcastle, losing just two of their last 14 Premier League games (W5 D7), although both of those defeats have come in their last three trips to St James' Park.

The Seagulls will be keen to improve defensively, having conceded eight goals in their last three games - they haven't conceded two or more in four consecutive games since a run of six in March 2022. Each of Brighton's last four games have featured at least four goals and there could be an intriguing contest at St James' Park this weekend.

Newcastle have a solid home record against Brighton, but we predict the Seagulls will take at least a share of the points in this game.
