Newcastle will seek to turn the trend on home soil.
Win Probability: Newcastle or Brighton?
Based on the available data—the head-to-head record, the home advantage for Newcastle, and the recent single-match results—we calculate the win probabilities as follows: Newcastle United has a 42% chance of winning, the draw is at 28%, and Brighton has a 30% chance. The total equals 100%. Newcastle's home factor gives them a slight edge, but Brighton's historically better H2H record and their recent 3-0 win over Chelsea keep this match finely balanced. The most likely outcome is a narrow Newcastle victory.
