Money Line & Both Teams To Score Pick
Brighton Win & BTTS(+200)

Burnley have predictably found life back in the Premier League tough in the first half of the season and it looks unlikely that their fortunes are going to improve dramatically when they kick off 2026 with a visit to Brighton on Saturday. The only win they have claimed on the road since promotion came at bottom-of-the-table Wolves and a 1-1 tie at Bournemouth was the only other occasion in their 9 away games that they have earned anything. So the signs are not good but it would not be a surprise if they managed to get on the scoresheet, as they have netted in each of their 8 road assignments since a 3-0 defeat at Tottenham on the opening weekend.

Brighton have hit their own rough period as a 2-2 tie at West Ham last Tuesday extended their run to 6 games without a win. That draw followed a 2-1 defeat at league leaders Arsenal, but they have enjoyed better fortunes at home, where title-chasing Aston Villa are the only visiting team to have left the Amex with all 3 points. Entertaining the 2nd-worst team in the league looks a good opportunity for Brighton to finally get over the line and push up from what is an underwhelming standing of 14th, and the Clarets’ habit of scoring on the road means a home win can be coupled with both teams scoring to offer an enticing value bet at +200 odds.
