Stats for this game
Matchup Newcastle VS Brighton
Brighton carry the narrow edge
Brighton’s 1–0 win at St James’ Park on 19 October 2024 and 2–1 extra-time FA Cup victory there on 2 March 2025 provide a strong pair of markers. Brighton also won 3–1 at home on 2 September 2023. Those results support a slight advantage, but they do not prove that Brighton control every phase or that Newcastle’s home setting has lost its influence. The setting remains part of the equation.
Newcastle can answer clearly
Newcastle beat Brighton 3–1 at St James’ Park on 2 May 2026 and 4–1 there on 18 May 2023. A 1–1 at Brighton on 4 May 2025 and a 0–0 there on 13 August 2022 add lower-margin evidence. The clubs’ competition contexts can change, so the dated results are guides rather than a permanent script. A new meeting will test whether Brighton reproduce their away authority or Newcastle turn home pressure into the decisive response.
