Match Facts

  • Newcastle have won just two of their 17 Premier League games against Brighton (D8 L7), though both victories have come at home (2-1 in March 2022, 4-1 in May 2023).

  • Following their 2-1 win in October, Brighton are looking to complete their second Premier League double over Newcastle after 2020-21.

  • Newcastle have lost 16 Premier League games this season, with seven coming at St James’ Park. Both are their highest number of defeats in a campaign since 2020-21 (17 overall, 8 at home).

  • Newcastle have lost their last four league games, with a 1-0 loss at Arsenal following three consecutive 2-1 defeats. They last lost five in a row in January 2021, while only Wolves between May and August 2021 have ever had five successive one-goal defeats in the Premier League.

  • Brighton have won six of their last eight Premier League games (D1 L1), as many as in their previous 23 (D9 L8). They’ve scored at least twice in each of their last four, last doing so in five in a row in February/March 2025.

  • Newcastle have dropped a league-high 25 points from winning positions in the Premier League this season, their second most in a single campaign after 2004-05 (31). Meanwhile, the Magpies have won just three points from losing positions this term, the joint-fewest in the division.

  • Newcastle have conceded a league-high 19 goals in the final 15 minutes of games in the Premier League this season. The Magpies are also five points worse off thanks to goals in this timeframe (6 gained, 11 lost), more than any other side.

  • Nick Woltemade scored seven goals in his first 14 Premier League appearances for Newcastle, averaging a goal every 157 minutes with a shot conversion rate of 27%. He’s now failed to score in his last 16 appearances for the Magpies, though he’s played just 597 minutes and had just five shots in this run.

  • Brighton’s Danny Welbeck is enjoying his best ever goalscoring season in the Premier League with 13 goals. Only six players have scored more in a campaign while aged 34+, most recently Cristiano Ronaldo (18) and Jamie Vardy (15) in 2021-22.

  • Brighton’s Yankuba Minteh has attempted more take ons in both the opposition half (120) and opposition penalty area (32) than any other player in the Premier League this season.
