Deciding factors

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 well coached, with enough cutting edge to punish errors at American Express Stadium. Their game is built on winning the midfield.

Away

Everton

Everton 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.

  1. 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.

  2. If Everton score first

    The favourite must chase, and both the draw and the upset become far more likely.

  3. If a red card arrives in the first hour

    Playing with ten men rewrites the expected-goals picture, whichever team it hits.
