Brighton & Hove Albion vs Norwich City: A meeting of the desperate underdogs

On Saturday, Brighton and Norwich will meet. They are arguably the biggest underdogs of the last few rounds of the English championship. Both teams have lost their last six games. Who will break the losing streak first?

Brighton is a long way from the relegation zone, but has lost their last six games by a combined score of 1:13. The only team they have beat is Newcastle. They have also lost on other occasions by a margin of two or more goals. Before the break, the Seagulls suffered a double combo at home to Liverpool and Tottenham, losing by the same score of 0:2. In the meantime, the team is 13th in the standings.

Norwich has also lost their last six games. The total score for those games is 4:17. Unlike Brighton, the Canaries have hit Leeds, Chelsea, Liverpool and Brentford. With the Peacocks, it was as frustrating as possible. Norwich equalised in the 91st minute but conceded a second goal in the 94th. Therefore, the gap between the survival zone grew to eight points. The Canaries are struggling desperately and put up a decent fight.

After the break, Brighton should burst for goals, at least by one goal. Norwich should also score as a defiant and dedicated team. Right now, the Canaries look preferable to attack performance. Finally, we do not rule out a late goal, as we saw in Norwich's recent encounter with Leeds. Brighton themselves has repeatedly escaped defeat in the closing stages.
