History of the Brighton & Hove Albion v Leicester City fixture

Brighton & HA are ready to welcome Leicester City to Withdean Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Seagulls are clearly on top, beating their opponents 5 times from 8 games.

The previous match played between the two at Withdean Stadium was within the last three years, in December 2002, with Leicester City inflicting a narrow 0-1 defeat upon the Seagulls in a League Division One match.

Its not been a very profitable last few weeks for Brighton & HA, and I'm afraid the Footymad team cannot see it getting too much better here. Look no further than honours being even at the end of this one. Score draw
