Match Facts
This is Ipswich’s first home league game against Brighton since a 0-0 draw in the Championship in September 2016, and first in the top-flight since a 2-0 win in January 1983.
Brighton are winless in their last four league games against Ipswich, with each of the last three finishing level (L1). There have been just three goals scored across these four games (2 for Ipswich, 1 for Brighton).
Ipswich have picked up as many points (4) and scored as many goals (4) in their last two Premier League games as they had in their previous seven beforehand.
Each of Brighton’s last four Premier League games have ended level. The last side to draw five successive matches in the competition were Fulham from December 2020 to January 2021, while the Seagulls last drew five league fixtures in a row in April 2000 when they were a fourth tier side under Micky Adams.
Ipswich have had fewer shots from open play (122) than any other side in the Premier League this season, while their open play expected goals figure of 13.1 is also a league-low.
Brighton are winless in eight Premier League games (D6 L2), their longest such run since going 11 without victory from September to December 2021 under Graham Potter – a run they ended with a win over a newly promoted side (2-0 v Brentford).
Excluding own goals, 68% of Ipswich’s Premier League goals this season have been scored by English players (13/19), the highest ratio of any side.
Ipswich’s Liam Delap has eight goals in 19 Premier League games this season, as many as he netted in 31 Championship appearances for Hull last season. Indeed, it’s the most goals by an English player in a promoted side’s first 20 matches of a Premier League campaign since Patrick Bamford’s 11 for Leeds in 2020-21.
Only Alex Iwobi (118) has played more progressive passes in the Premier League in 2024-25 than Brighton’s Jan Paul van Hecke (111), whose average of 6.6 per 90 is the most of any player to play 1,000+ minutes in the division this season.
Brighton’s Julio Enciso is averaging 3.4 shots on target per 90 minutes in the Premier League this season, the highest rate of any player to play at least 90 minutes in the competition this term. He’s yet to score so far however, having more shots on target without scoring than anyone else (11).
