---------------------------------
Brighton & Hove Albion will host Newcastle United at the Amex Stadium on Sunday, May 4th, in a crucial Premier League encounter with European aspirations on the line for both sides. Brighton, currently ninth, are aiming for a potential Conference League spot, while third-placed Newcastle are determined to secure their Champions League qualification.

Brighton ended a five-match winless streak with a dramatic 3-2 victory over West Ham, showcasing their fighting spirit. However, they face injury concerns with key players sidelined, including João Pedro due to suspension. Newcastle, despite a recent heavy defeat against Aston Villa, have been in excellent form, winning six of their last seven matches, including a comfortable 3-0 victory over Ipswich Town. Their potent attack, spearheaded by Alexander Isak, poses a significant threat.

Brighton have a strong recent record against Newcastle, unbeaten in their last four meetings and having won both encounters at St. James' Park this season. However, Newcastle will be eager to secure their first Premier League away win against Brighton. With both teams possessing attacking talent and a desire for European football, a high-scoring affair could be on the cards.

Prediction: Brighton 2-3 Newcastle United
