Team shape
How will the two teams set up?
Official line-ups are announced roughly an hour before kick-off.
At home
Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton are organised and tough to break down, and they tend to earn results at American Express Stadium by controlling the middle of the pitch.
Away
Brentford
Brentford are likely to sit in a compact shape on the road at American Express Stadium and wait for a single opening rather than chase control.
What could change
What would change the King Exchange prediction?
Team news and match events that would move our numbers.
If Brighton field a weakened XI
Rotation or a missing key player would take several points off their win chance. Line-ups drop an hour before kick-off.
If Brentford score first
The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.
If a red card arrives in the first hour
Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.
The long read
Brighton vs Brentford match preview
Brighton & Hove Albion welcome Brentford in front of a home crowd, and the King Exchange numbers tilt toward Brighton. The expected-goals split (1.74 for Brighton, 0.96 for Brentford) is the strongest signal, and it drives our 55% for Brighton. Brentford's best hope is to keep it level going into the final 30 minutes, when a draw becomes very live.
