When you look at it going into this match. Brighton are like a model that plays a certain way, they train that way and they perform that way. Today we are likely to field a side that are weaker than the 11 who faced Brighton last season because we are missing full backs and not having Doucoure seems to take away some of our energy.

Of course we are stronger with Grealish in there, but is he alone enough to completely sway this fixture. Brighton do appear to be weaker mainly for losing their star striker however. But you can understand why Brighton are favourites because our team is still lacking and it has to be expected that Brighton will win this Barring if the new stadium has a positive effect.
 
If Sky has any respect for us they'll keep that humungous arsehole McCoist from covering this game.

They cursed us with his pissed presence on the final day of Goodison; to use him for today would be beyond belief.
If sky had any respect for us they'd have started coverage already and have in depth conversation with people from the club and show club guided tours of the whole ground, discuss the process from start to finish, interviews with fans, a sky respected club would have had wall to wall coverage about moving to a new ground for a few days. They'll have Spitty, Slippy, Barnes, Murphy Hanson and Thompson on today.
 

Means nothing. If this game was tacked onto the end of last season we'd have been favourites.
It does mean something though. It means statistically Brighton are more likely to win the match than us. So for example if its played 10 times brighton win more of those than we do.
