The third round of the League Cup gets underway this week and among the top encounters will be Brighton hosting Wolverhampton Wanderers. Going into the Wednesday match, we have a prediction.
These two sides have had opposing starts to the season; Brighton have enjoyed it more than their visitors. The Seagulls’ new man in charge Fabian Hurzeler is enjoying a dream start in England.
Brighton are yet to taste defeat this season, winning three of the opening five matches. One of those was in the second round of this competition, beating Crawley Town 4-0.
The team will hope to improve on back-to-back draws. Upon returning from the international break, they could only manage a 0-0 draw with promoted Ipswich Town.
While Brighton failed to score for the first time this season, a third clean sheet in five is acceptable.
Wolverhampton Wanderers aren’t having their dream start, winning just once in five matches. The visitors have so far failed to match their Premier League counterparts.
Their only win came against Championship side Burnley in the second round of this competition. Not even the two-week international break would engineer a shift in fortunes.
Wolves returned to a 2-1 home defeat against Newcastle United on Sunday. They scored first and looked to be coasting to a first league win but were shocked by two quick, late goals. If there's something to be optimistic about, the team has scored in all their last four matches.
However, they suffered four defeats in the last six meetings with Brighton. Wolves’ away form is also unimpressive, as they won none of the last eight on the road.
