Predictions and team news for the Everton versus Brighton match, along with betting tips, odds, and a guide for Bet Builder.

In the upcoming Premier League fixture, Everton and Brighton will face off at the Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool on Sunday, August 24. The kick-off time is set for 2pm, and the match will be broadcast on Sky Sports Premier League & Sky Sports Main Event.

Everton, seeking to avoid a dismal start to the season, will be aiming to avoid becoming the first team in Premier League history to lose their first two games in four consecutive campaigns. Their opening fixture ended in a 1-0 defeat at Leeds, with their skipper conceding two fouls during the match. However, there's a glimmer of hope for the Toffees as Iliman Ndiaye, their attacker, could score a late goal to turn the tide.

Brighton, on the other hand, drew 1-1 with Fulham in their opening match. The Seagulls have shown resilience, particularly in their recent away games against Everton, as they are unbeaten in their last four encounters. Brighton's attack could improve on their performance against Fulham, where they managed 10 shots, with Maxim De Cuyper, their full-back, hoping to make a mark despite his inexperience in the Premier League.

However, De Cuyper could face a challenge, as he could be booked again due to his inexperience. Meanwhile, Jack Hinshelwood has trained this week and is available to feature for Brighton, but Solly March and Adam Webster remain sidelined.

Everton's coach for the match is yet to be confirmed, as no information about Everton's coach for August 2024 was found in the search results. Conversely, Arne Slot is noted as the head coach of FC Liverpool since July 2024, so he was not Everton's coach.

The competition between the two teams promises to be intense, as Everton have lost their first home league game without scoring in each of the last three seasons. Leeds had 21 efforts at home to Everton in their previous encounter, and Brighton, who drew 1-1 with Fulham, could pose a similar threat.

As the teams prepare to take the field, both David Moyes' men and Brighton have added motivation. Everton have the added motivation to grind out a win in their first game at the Hill Dickinson Stadium, while Brighton will be aiming to continue their unbeaten run against Everton.

Carlos Baleba, Everton's key player, is fit after being withdrawn against Fulham as a precaution. With the stakes high and both teams eager to secure a win, the match between Everton and Brighton promises to be an exciting encounter.
