Recent respective form guides

Brighton & Hove Albion will be hoping to improve on their poor home form, collecting just 4 draws from the last six contests. While Seagulls have scored 8, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Leicester City's away form is none too clever either, remaining unbeaten in their last six, winning five and drawing the one. These six games have produced a glut of goals, with the Foxes scoring 15 and conceding 4.

Brighton & HA find themselves struggling down in 18th position in the league having picked up 13 points from their 13 matches. Leicester City are just outside the promotion places, in 4th, having taken 25 points from 12 games.
