"Judging by": Paul Merson states his prediction for Brighton vs Burnley

Paul Merson has given his prediction for the upcoming match between Brighton and Burnley. The Seagulls are currently sitting in 9th place in the Premier League table with 33 points. Meanwhile, The Clarets are in 20th place in the relegation zone. Both sides will be hoping to have a successful match at the weekend, though Merson backs Graham Potter's side to be the winners of the upcoming match. "Do you know what? I've been quite impressed with how Burnley have played in recent weeks. They were unlucky not to beat Manchester United and you could even argue that Liverpool had a bit of a false result against them. Sean Dyche's men created a lot of chances against Liverpool, but they need to start putting them away sooner rather than later," the pundit said (via Sportskeeda). "Brighton, on the other hand, are a 'hit or miss' kind of team as you never really know what you're going to get from them. Judging by the way both teams have fared recently, though, I think Brighton will make home advantage count to secure a narrow win."
