Best Tip: Both teams to score

Having studied all relevant statistics, including historical head-to-head (H2H) data, we have come to the conclusion that this fixture will deliver both elation and misery to both sets of fans. We predict both Newcastle and Brighton to find the back of the net during the 90 mins, but the ultimate winner of the game seems less clear. The odds point towards a both teams to score bet, and that's what we'd recommend going with.
