It's been a tough start to life back in the Premier League for Coventry City. They are bottom of the table after the first three games of the season and are yet to score a goal. The Sky Blues will hope to get off the mark when they host tenth-placed Brighton and Hove Albion. The Seagulls have started well and our prediction is they will win.
It was never going to be easy for Coventry on their return to the Premier League after a quarter-of-a-century. All three of their games so far have ended in defeat and they are rock bottom of the table. Their task is to ensure they don't get left behind like Wolves did last season. They are only a point from safety, so not a panic yet, but their fans are waiting to cheer a league goal.
Brighton and Hove Albion have had a busy season with the home campaign and also a successful play-off round in the Conference League. Unlike their opponents, the Seagulls have not been having many problems up front with 12 being scored in five league and cup fixtures. This is the kind of away game they really need to win if they want another season in Europe.

Coventry City - Brighton: Form Analysis
Along with Fulham, Coventry City have lost their opening three league games of the season. On their return to the Premier League, the Sky Blues had the toughest possible start with a trip to defending champions Arsenal and the Gunners won that match 3-0.
Sky Blues are still searching for their first point.
Since then, Coventry lost at home to fellow-promoted side Hull City 1-0 and last weekend were beaten 1-0 at Manchester City. Three games, a trio of defeats, no points and not a single goal is a worrying statistic for Frank Lampard's team. They did at least win 4-2 at Plymouth in the Carabao Cup.
Brighton and Hove Albion got off to a great start in this season's Premier League. The first half of their opening game at home to Aston Villa saw them score four times without reply. No more goals followed and they then had that same scoreline at home to Tromso in the Conference League.
Back in the Premier League, the Seagulls lost 4-3 at Chelsea and last weekend were held to a 1-1 home draw by Leeds United.

Coventry City & Brighton Squad Analysis
Coventry have had some selection problems so far this season. Good news for them is that Stephen Mfuni (who's on loan from Manchester City) is available again for this match. He couldn't play against his parent club in last weekend's 1-0 defeat.
Still some injury problems for the Sky Blues
There are still going to be some absences though, including Josh Eccles, Luke Woolfenden and Kaine Kesler-Hayden. New signing Sidki Cherif didn't play last weekend due to fitness issues, but could be in the squad for this Sunday's match against Brighton and Hove Albion.
The Seagulls also have some injury conerns. Yankuba Minteh, Jack Hinshelwood (who scored twice against Villa) and Kaoru Mitoma will all miss this match. However, Georgino Rutter an Femi Azeez are possible squad members. Michael Svoboda is also likely to be included..
Brighton have already scored eight goals in the Premier League this season. A key player for them has been Maxim De Cuyper with one goal and an assist in the league. He's played a total of 29 passes into the box, a total only bettered by Bruno Fernandes.

Our Coventry City vs Brighton Prediction
It looks like being a long hard season for Coventry CIty. They are without a point or a goal after the first three games of the new season, it's not a crisis yet, but they really need to get scoring goals and earning some points to avoid being left behind in a few games time.
Brighton and Hove Albion have gone two league games without a win since beating Aston Villa. The Seagulls put in a good performance at Chelsea and a repeat of that level of performance can pay dividends here. Our main Coventry City v Brighton prediction is Brighton wins.
