West Ham vs Brighton Betting Tips &— West Ham to win 

The Hammers and Brighton enter the EPL match on Tuesday brimming with confidence after significant victories over two of London’s top clubs. The Hammers achieved a memorable 2:0 away win against Arsenal at the Emirates, while Brighton defeated Tottenham with an impressive 4:2 win at the AMEX Arena.

Currently positioned sixth and eighth in the division and only three points apart at mid-season, an exciting game is anticipated with both teams expected to contribute to a high-scoring match.

Goals typically accompany Brighton on the road, with both teams scoring (BTTS) in 17 of their last 20 away English Premier League (EPL) matches. Since October 2022, the Seagulls have only not scored in one of their last 23 away league games.

Despite West Ham maintaining clean sheets in their previous two home games against Wolves (3:0) and Man Utd (2:0), I anticipate Brighton scoring at least one goal. Considering the Hammers have scored two or more goals in four out of their last five matches, it seems unlikely that either team will keep a clean sheet on Tuesday.

Historically, this match has been favorable for those pursuing goals. Both Teams To Score (BTTS) occurred in eight of the past ten confrontations, including West Ham’s 3:1 victory on the south coast earlier this season.

Given the Hammers fine form, they could well claim the points on Tuesday but I’m much more confident we will see both teams score, in a likely high-scoring affair where at least three match goals can be expected.
