Heading into the weekend's fixtures in 12th place, just behind their opponents today on account of a slightly inferior goal difference, the Seagulls rescued a point away at struggling Wolves last time out, thanks to a late equalizer from defender Jan Paul van Hecke.
After a slow start to the campaign, Newcastle, meanwhile, appears to be gathering form and results. A fortnight ago, Newcastle's 2-0 win over Nottingham Forest once again saw new striker Nick Woltemade among the scorers.

How to watch the Premier League 2025-26 from anywhere with a VPN
If you're traveling abroad and want to keep up with all the EPL action while away from home, a VPN can help enhance your privacy and security when streaming.
It encrypts your traffic and prevents your internet service provider from throttling your speeds, and can also be helpful when connecting to public Wi-Fi networks while traveling, adding an extra layer of protection for your devices and logins. VPNs are legal in many countries, including the US and Canada, and can be used for legitimate purposes such as improving online privacy and security.
However, some streaming services may have policies restricting VPN use to access region-specific content. If you're considering a VPN for streaming, check the platform's terms of service to ensure compliance.
If you choose to use a VPN, follow the provider's installation instructions, ensuring you're connected securely and in compliance with applicable laws and service agreements. Some streaming platforms may block access when a VPN is detected, so verifying if your streaming subscription allows VPN usage is crucial.

Can I livestream Brighton vs. Newcastle in the UK?
No broadcaster has the rights to show this game live in the UK because of the traditional Saturday 3 p.m. kickoff blackout. This prohibits matches from being shown in the region at that time to protect attendances throughout the English football pyramid.
That also means that if you're traveling in the UK, you're unlikely to be able to watch the game as you normally would at home, because of geoblocking.
There's one option to get around this. By using a VPN, as explained above, you can set your location to a country where the match is being broadcast, and go from there.
