One of the quickest starters in the Premier League this term return to action on Saturday, as Brighton chase a victory that could see them end the day at the top of the standings. The Seagulls will have home field advantage when they come up against Ipswich Town.

Before Betting On Brighton vs Ipswich

Brighton have been traditionally strong starters in the Premier League, and that trend has continued under Fabian Hurzeler this term. The Seagulls come into this round following the international break after recording victories in two of their three matches this term. They could end the weekend at the top of the standings if they can claim maximum points at home against Ipswich on Saturday.

The Seagulls saw their perfect start to the season come to an end before the international break, but huge positives can still be taken from their draw at the Emirates against Arsenal. Joao Pedro netted for the third game running to level the scores in that fixture, but it was the very least that Brighton deserved on the balance of play.

Kieran McKenna’s side will be under pressure to pick up points over the next couple of weeks after surviving a tough first two weeks of the season against Man City and Liverpool. The Tractor Boys got a first point of the season before the international break, as they were held to a 1-1 tie against Fulham.

Liam Delap netted his first goal of the season in that draw, and they could have the attacking talent to pose questions of Brighton at the Amex this weekend. However, the Tractor Boys have already set an unwanted record this term after going three without a win at the start of a top-flight season for the first time since 1984-85.
