On Sunday, four EPL matches will be played, including one at Amex Stadium, where Brighton and Newcastle will battle it out in what is, at this stage of the season, a rare game between two teams with something left to fight for. After picking up a much-needed win last weekend, overcoming West Ham in front of a home crowd, the Seagulls will be looking fly higher still, and if they can do that, then they'll have a great chance of playing European soccer next season.
Continental soccer is also on the agenda for the Magpies, who will be hoping to peck away at the hosts before securing a positive result that helps them in their quest for UEFA Champions League qualification. As things stand, Eddie Howe's men are in the top five, but they cannot afford to take it easy, especially with both Man City and Chelsea in decent form. As a result, this is just as big for the visitors as it is for the hosts.

Our Brighton vs Newcastle Prediction
Somewhat oddly, Harvey Barnes has gone a couple of games without testing an opposition keeper, but that run likely won't last for too long. After all, Barnes is a player who took four shots last time out, showing, yet again, a clear hunger to go for goal, while if we consider that he's taken 12 shots (four on target) in his last five, he looks a good bet to work the Brighton keeper at least once all the time odds of -115 are on offer. After all, Barnes loves to play on the break, which bodes well ahead of a game against a Seagulls side that struggled to guard against the counter. Brighton vs Newcastle Pick: Harvey Barnes Over 0.5 Shots on Target.
