Neither side have much to play for in the remaining six weeks of the campaign, stuck in mid-table and without hopes of securing European football. They will be playing for pride at the Gtech Community Stadium and little else.
Brentford as they have maintained a comfortable 22-point cushion over the relegation zone. However, their chances of finishing in the top eight this season have hit a major blow in recent weeks as they are now five points behind eighth-placed AFC Bournemouth. 
Brighton & Hove Albion are set to surpass their point tally from last season when they finished in 11th place with 48 points. In the current 2024-25 Premier League campaign, the visitors have amassed 48 points with six games remaining. Their goal this season is to fight for a European football spot, but given their recent floundering performance, it is safe to say that feat won't be easily achieved.  Brentford possible starting lineup: Flekken; Kayode, Collins, Van den Berg, Lewis-Potter; Janelt, Norgaard; Mbeumo, Damsgaard, Schade; Wissa
Brighton & Hove Albion possible starting lineup: Verbruggen; Hinshelwood, Dunk, Van Hecke, Estupinan; Baleba, Ayari; Minteh, Pedro, Mitoma; Welbeck
Brentford is likely to play a 4-2-3-1 formation with Flekken; Ajer, Collins, Van den Berg, and Lewis-Potter. Nunes and Henry return, but Carvalho and Dasilva are out injured. Brighton welcomes back Mitoma but will be without Steele and Webster. These contrasting lineups could significantly impact the match.
The game won't be televised in the UK but is available on Peacock (US) and fuboTV (Canada). Predicting a winner is difficult given recent form and league positions. Expect a competitive match as both teams battle for valuable mid-table points.
