The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Saturday's Premier League clash between Brighton & Hove Albion and Aston Villa, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Brighton & Hove Albion 1-2 Aston Villa

The less said about Brighton's home form the better, but Villa have been far from consistent on the road as well this term, which should make for an intriguing battle against two sides relatively low on confidence. While Dunk and Webster's returns cannot be understated, the options for change on Villa's bench do favour the visitors, though, and we can envisage the Lions returning to winning ways to close the gap on the top half, but it will not be a cakewalk.
