PREDICTION

Fabian Hurzeler’s Brighton and Hove Albion spent over £200 million in the summer transfer window and the Seagulls have made a strong start to the campaign. Defeats of Everton and Manchester United were followed up by a resilient point in a 1-1 draw at the Emirates Stadium against Arsenal. They now face an Ipswich Town side that will be happy to write off defeats against Manchester City and Liverpool with a respectable 1-1 draw against Fulham following that. These are two attack-minded sides and could also make mistakes at the back throughout the campaign so a high-scoring affair seems likely.
