Fixture: Brighton vs Leeds
Date: Saturday, 01 November 2025
Kick-off: 15:00 GMT
Venue: Amex Stadium
Brighton's recent form shows they can mix it with the big boys, nicking wins against Newcastle and Chelsea. They've got a knack for scoring, but their defence can be a bit leaky, as seen against Manchester United. Leeds, on the other hand, have been a bit up and down, with wins against West Ham and Wolves but losses to Burnley and Tottenham. They'll be looking to exploit Brighton's defensive frailties, but it won't be easy against a team that's been scoring for fun.
This match could be a cracker, with both teams likely to go for it. Brighton's attacking flair might just edge it, but Leeds have the firepower to cause problems. Expect a tight, entertaining game with chances at both ends.
Brighton have been in decent nick lately, with wins over Newcastle and Chelsea showing they can take on anyone. Their only real blip was that 4-2 loss to Manchester United, but they won't let that get them down. Overall form suggests they'll be confident going into this game, especially with their attacking options firing on all cylinders. The only concern might be their defence, which has shown it can be breached. But with players like Welbeck and Rutter in form, they should have enough to trouble Leeds.

Leeds have had a bit of a rollercoaster ride recently, with wins against West Ham and Wolves but losses to Burnley and Tottenham. They've shown they can score goals, but their defence has been a bit shaky at times. This inconsistency could be a worry going into this game, but they'll be hoping to put in a solid performance. If Leeds can shore up their defence and get their attacking players firing, they could cause Brighton some problems. It'll be a tough ask, but they've got the players to do it.
