They are currently sitting in 10th position in the league table, having accumulated 45 points from 34 games. The team has managed to secure back-to-back wins against Crystal Palace and Everton, but they have also suffered consecutive defeats against Luton and Aston Villa. Bournemouth's goalscoring and goal conceding rates are identical at 1.33 per game, resulting in a neutral goal difference. Notably, 67% of their recent matches have seen over 2.5 goals scored, indicating a tendency for high-scoring encounters. The 3-1 loss against Aston Villa stands out as a particularly high-scoring game in their recent run of fixtures.

Brighton

Brighton's recent form has been a mixture of results, with their last six games yielding one win, two draws, and three losses. They have struggled to find the back of the net consistently, scoring only three goals in their previous six matches, resulting in a low average of 0.5 goals per game. On the defensive end, Brighton has conceded 10 goals, with an average of 1.67 goals conceded per game. It's worth noting that they suffered a heavy 4-0 defeat against Manchester City in their most recent match. However, prior to that, they managed to keep two clean sheets in their previous five games. The total goals average of 2.17 suggests that their matches have been relatively balanced between high-scoring and low-scoring affairs, with 50% of their games featuring over 2.5 goals and the other 50% seeing under 2.5 goals.

Recent home/away form

Bournemouth

Bournemouth's recent home form has been impressive, with the team currently on a three-game unbeaten run at home in the Premier League. They have secured two consecutive wins against Crystal Palace and Everton, before drawing 2-2 against Manchester United in their most recent home fixture. Notably, Bournemouth's 4-3 victory over Luton stands out as a particularly high-scoring game, showcasing their attacking prowess. However, their home form has not been perfect, as they suffered a 1-0 defeat to Leicester in the FA Cup. Overall, Bournemouth's home performances have been characterized by high-scoring encounters, with 67% of their last six home games featuring over 2.5 goals.

Brighton

Brighton's recent away form has been poor, with a run of four consecutive defeats before their last two matches ended in draws. During this six-game stretch, Brighton has struggled to find the back of the net, scoring only two goals while conceding 11, resulting in a goal difference of -9. The 4-0 loss against AS Roma in the UEFA Europa League stands out as a particularly high-scoring game, highlighting their defensive vulnerabilities. Despite their current 11th position in the league, Brighton's away performances have been a cause for concern, with a low goals-per-game average of 0.33 and a high goals-conceded-per-game average of 1.83.
