Back Brighton to pop Burnley's bubble

Kick-off 3pm Saturday

After six games without a win, Brighton are only three points above the drop zone but they look value to pick up a victory over Burnley.

Burnley are a motivated, well-organised side and have worked hard to put 31 points on the board.

However, it would be unfair to expect them to remain so high in the table because they lack the talent of the teams around them.

Brighton is a game they will fancy but the Seagulls have not yet lost at home to a team outside of the so-called big six.
