Brighton & Hove Albion are unbeaten at home against Watford in the Premier League (W1 D2).

Neal Maupay is aiming to score in consecutive Premier League matches for the first time since October 2020. His first ever goal in the competition came against Watford in August 2019.

Ismaila Sarr has scored five goals in his last six league appearances for Watford, and is looking to score in three consecutive league matches for them for the first time.

Watford have scored an own goal in their last two Premier League matches against Brighton, with Abdoulaye Doucoure and Adrian Mariappa doing so in August 2019 and February 2020 respectively. Only two teams have had players score an own goal in three successive meetings with an opponent: Aston Villa v Charlton Athletic (1999-2001) and Arsenal v Chelsea (2008-2009).
