Brighton & Hove Albion is in sixth place in the 20-team English Premier League, though they've cooled off on a 4-4 run. That included a 3-1 loss to 16th-ranked Nottingham Forest and a 5-1 drubbing by 17-ranked Everton. Injuries are a part of the problem without midfielder Jakub Moder (knee), wing-back Tariq Lamptey (knee), attacking midfielder Adam Lallana (thigh), centre-back Adam Webster, and wingers Jeremy Sarmiento (ankle) and Solly March (thigh), while defender Joel Veltman (thigh) still might not be ready to go. Brighton & Hove Albion has split its last four road games and heads to third-ranked Newcastle United. Newcastle United is outscoring league foes 63-31, tied for first defensively. They're on a 14-2-2 run at home beating the visitors by a 33-11 count, so back home field. Play Newcastle United on the moneyline.
