Match Facts

  • Burnley have won just one of their last nine home league games against Brighton (D5 L3), beating them 1-0 in December 2018 under Sean Dyche.

  • Brighton are looking to complete the Premier League double over Burnley for the first time, last doing so in any division in the 2012-13 Championship campaign.

  • Seven of the 13 Premier League meetings between Burnley and Brighton have been drawn, with both sides winning three each. It’s one of just eight Premier League fixtures to have been played 12+ times and finish level more than half the time.

  • Burnley have picked up 10 points across their last 22 Premier League games (W1 D7 L14), as many as they managed in their opening nine matches of 2025-26 (W3 D1 L5), while their next defeat in the competition will be their 20th this term, which would be their joint-third most in a Premier League campaign, after only 2009-10 and 2023-24 (both 24).

  • Brighton have won four of their last five Premier League matches (L1) and could win three successive league games away from home for the first time since January 2023 – the only time they’ve previously done so in the competition.

  • After winning each of their first three Premier League games this season in which they led, Burnley have since won just one of their five matches when leading since (D2 L2); in 2025-26, the Clarets face the highest open play xG against per 90 among all sides in a winning game state (1.77).

  • In the Premier League this season, Brighton rank first for high turnovers (264) and second for pressed sequences (386), while only Tottenham Hotspur (247) have faced more high turnovers than Burnley (244).

  • Among players with 40+ true tackles attempted in the Premier League this season, only Jake O'Brien (84.5% - 49/58) and Jean-Clair Todibo (77.6% - 38/49) have a better true tackle win rate than Burnley’s Quilindschy Hartman (76.6% - 36/47).

  • Brighton’s Diego Gómez won possession in the final third three times last time out against Liverpool; it’s the third time he’s won possession at least three times in an opponent's third this season; only Bukayo Saka has done so in more Premier League games in 2025-26 (4).

  • Danny Welbeck’s brace against Liverpool last time out took his Premier League tally to 12 this season; only Glenn Murray has scored for Brighton in a season in the competition (13 in 2018-19).
