Brighton & HA prepare to entertain Yeovil Town at Withdean Stadium on Saturday afternoon, hoping to break their duck against the visitors. Out of their two previous meetings, the Seagulls have lost both.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Withdean Stadium was just last season, in September 2007, with Yeovil Town inflicting a narrow 1-2 defeat upon the Seagulls in a League One match.

Recent respective form guides
Brighton & Hove Albion's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Seagulls have scored 6, a worringly large 15 have been leaked at the other end.
Yeovil Town's away form is none too clever either, winning 2 of the last six, but losing the other 4. While the Glovers have hit 4 goals, 12 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Brighton & HA are stuck down in the relegation zone of Coca-Cola League One with a return of just 32 points from their 34 games thus far. Yeovil Town are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 38 points from 35 matches.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Its been a distinctly poor show from Brighton & HA at home in recent games, and, though I cannot see a run starting here, I do think the Seagulls will at least gain a draw. No-score draw
