Brighton & HA prepare to entertain Cardiff City at Withdean Stadium on Saturday afternoon, looking to continue an impressive record. The Seagulls are clearly on top, having won 14 and lost only 6 of the 27 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Withdean Stadium was less than a year ago, in October 2004, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides
Brighton & Hove Albion's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While Seagulls have scored 7, a worringly large 10 have been leaked at the other end.
Cardiff City's away form is none too clever either, with two wins, two draws, and two defeats. The games have constituted a decent return of 9 goals for the Bluebirds, and 8 goals against.
Brighton & HA are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 10 points from 12 matches. Cardiff City's 15 points from 11 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position.

FootyMad's prediction ...
Nothing seems to be going right for the Seagulls at home recently, and I can see no immediate turn around in fortunes as the Bluebirds come away with an easy victory. Away win
| Sequence statistics: | |
| Brighton & HA | Failed to win in previous 3 home matches. Not won in the 6 most recent games. |
| Cardiff City | Undefeated in last 4 away games. |
