Hammers looking for a first

West Ham have won 18 games, drawn 19 and lost 18 matches since they first played Brighton in 1903.

The Irons have never beaten Brighton in their eight Premier League meetings (D5, L3).

The Hammers’ last top-flight victory over Brighton was in 1983.

The five most recent league matches between these two teams have all finished as a draw.

The Hammers  20 Premier League wins in 2021 is a club record for a calendar year – only Chelsea and Manchester City have earned more this year.

West Ham  are unbeaten in their last seven Premier League matches played on a Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, winning the last four in a row.

Brighton are on an eight-match winless run, although they have drawn six of those.

The Seagulls could record successive goalless draws for the second time this season.

There have been 26 goals in 13 Premier League games involving Brighton this season, the second lowest tally in the division behind Wolves.
