Did you know?

Newcastle have never won in nine previous Premier League meetings with Brighton (D5 L4), more often than they have faced any other side without a victory in the competition.

Brighton are unbeaten in their four Premier League matches at Newcastle (W2 D2), keeping a clean sheet each time. It is the most a team has faced another away from home in the competition without ever conceding.

Newcastle's Joe Willock has netted in each of his last two Premier League matches, having failed to score in his previous 19 appearances this term. Since his top-flight debut for the Magpies in February 2021, he has scored more goals for the club than any other player (10).

Neal Maupay has scored 26 Premier League goals for Brighton – one more strike and he will become the Seagulls' highest goalscorer in the competition (currently level with Glenn Murray).
