West Ham continue to sit at the wrong end of the Premier League standings, despite heavy investment during the summer.

Julen Lopetegui continues to fight for his position at the club, despite picking up a creditable point on the road at Bournemouth on Monday.

Brighton dropped to ninth in the standings after a humbling home defeat against Crystal Palace last Sunday. That defeat means that the Seagulls have now failed to win in their last four.

Brighton have won three of the last five meetings between the sides, but five of the last seven meetings in East London have ended in draws.

West Ham vs. Brighton Prediction

Brighton have been a difficult team to trust in the Premier League this season, and their inconsistent run of four without a win means that they are challenging to side with at a short price this weekend.

Therefore, a chance could be taken on the points being shared at the London Stadium.
