Brighton vs Wolves – Predicted lineup and team news

Yahoo Sports

Brighton vs Wolves – Predicted lineup and team news Brighton and Hove Albion aim to revive their European charge against the Premier League’s bottom club Wolves on Saturday. The Seagulls enter the weekend just two points adrift of sixth place with three games left. Fabian Hurzeler has recently signed a new long-term contract following an admirable revival at the Amex.

His side has won six of their last nine matches to stay in European contention. A victory today is essential to keep their top-seven hopes alive before the season concludes. Brighton have already netted 49 goals during this Premier League season and seek one more for a milestone.

Reaching 50 strikes would see them achieve the feat for the fourth consecutive top-flight year. Their recent home form is impressive, having beaten Liverpool and Chelsea by a combined 5–1 score. The Seagulls have only lost one of sixteen games against sides currently in the relegation zone.

Hurzeler will demand a ruthless performance to bounce back from the disappointment at St James’ Park. Brighton and Hove Albion team news Fabian Hurzeler faces a late decision on Mats Wieffer following a small ankle issue earlier this week. The midfielder has been a key figure recently, notably bagging a brace against Burnley last month.

Diego Gomez will also be assessed, though Hurzeler insists he will not risk the player’s long-term health. In his absence, James Milner and Solly March provide experienced alternatives for the matchday squad tonight. Both players are officially back in contention and represent a significant boost for the manager.
