Brighton have enjoyed a more comfortable 2024/25 season and will look to secure a top-half finish as we enter the final few weeks of the campaign.
Much was expected of the Seagulls last season after a shock sixth-place finish in 2022/23, sealing Europa League football in the process. And things started well for Roberto De Zerbi as Brighton won five of their opening six games. However, from there, the Italian could only pick up another seven victories from 32, with Brighton sliding all the way down to 11th after a particularly poor run of just six points from their last 10 matches.
Of course, De Zerbi has now departed, replaced by German coach Fabian Hürzeler, whose reputation is high after helping St. Pauli win the 2. Bundesliga title. But can he return Brighton to European contenders?
As things stand, a top seven or perhaps even top eight finish could secure European football for next season and given that at the time of writing Brighton sit in 10th place, but behind eighth-placed Bournemouth on goal difference alongside Fulham with all three teams on 48 points.
