2025-05-03 | Pre-game insights

The AI has spoken regarding the English Premier League match on May 4, 2025, at the American Express Stadium in Falmer, England. According to the prediction, Brighton & Hove Albion are favored to win against Newcastle United. Despite Newcastle having a slightly better team rate (0.707) compared to Brighton (0.602), the AI gives Brighton a 53.5% probability of winning, while Newcastle's chances stand at only 21.5%, with a 24.9% chance of a draw.
Brighton's recent form has been inconsistent, with a mix of wins, losses, and a draw in their last five games, including a recent 3-2 victory against West Ham United. On the other hand, Newcastle has shown strong performance lately, securing four wins in their last five matches, including dominant victories against Ipswich Town and Crystal Palace.
However, head-to-head records suggest a slight advantage for Brighton, having won the last two matches against Newcastle. Brighton's attacking midfielder, Julian Alvarez, will be key to unlocking Newcastle's defense, while Newcastle relies heavily on the goal-scoring prowess of their striker, Alexander Isak. Despite Isak's talent, the AI algorithm clearly favours the home advantage and Brighton's overall tactical setup. Only time will tell if the AI's prediction comes to fruition.
