Brighton will look to build on an encouraging start to the season when they host Leeds at the Amex Stadium in a Premier League fixture that pits two sides in fine early-season form against each other.

Brighton's recent sequence of LWWDW shows only one defeat in their last five outings, while Leeds have gone unbeaten across their own run of DWWWD, a record that includes three wins and two draws. Across those matches each side has won three times, leaving little to separate them heading into this weekend's meeting.

A fixture with recent history

The two clubs have met regularly in recent seasons, with fortunes swinging back and forth. Leeds won the most recent encounter 1-0 in May 2026, but that followed a heavier 3-0 defeat at the Amex the previous November, when Brighton were emphatic in front of their own supporters.

Further back, the fixture produced two draws either side of a narrow Brighton win in 2022, underlining how tightly contested this rivalry has become. Neither side has managed to establish sustained dominance over the other across the last four years of meetings.

What to expect

With both teams unbeaten in their last five and matched on wins, this looks a finely poised contest as the Premier League season reaches its third round of fixtures. Brighton will hope home advantage tips the balance, while Leeds will point to their own unbeaten run as evidence they can leave the south coast with a positive result.
