Sheffield United vs Brighton & Hove Albion Prediction

Although Brighton are by no means the best team in the division let alone in great form, it would be a huge surprise if they were to end up heading back down to the south coast without three points. They are very well organised and have a strong mentality which means they will approach this game in much the same way as they did against Chelsea. We expect Brighton to pull off a no-frills win.
