Events

Match Events

0' The stage is set the green flag drops! Another match against Newcastle United FC and Brighton & Hove Albion FC has kicked off!
5' Not even hints on scoring a goal over the last 5 minutes.
10' Brighton & Hove Albion FC is showing some good football. However, Brighton & Hove Albion FC are ready to play back every minute. It might result in some problems for the home side. The game will hardly remain goalless.

29' Brighton & Hove Albion FC looks like a favorite considering 1 games won in last 2 matches with its main striker Jack Hinshelwood scoring 1 goals.
34' The referee is likely to let players tackle, as he already missed some meaty challenges during opening seconds. He is still to establish what should not be done by the players and what is acceptable on the pitch. It’s going to be a tough game for Mats Wieffer suffering a number of foals already.
39' Kaoru Mitoma was booked on 39.
44' Although teams showed high tempo form the start, they seem to slow down a bit. Both sides really need to catch a fire. Otherwise, we have another goalless match.

71' It’s high time Eddie Howe made some changes to put the his team’s game back to action.
76' Nick Pope has certainly something to prove this evening. He made 40 appearances with only 0 goals this season.
81' While players are taking a pause, let’s have a look at their stats. The teams met 2 times this season with Brighton & Hove Albion FC winning 50% of all matches.
