Brighton would have been satisfied with their first-half display if they held onto their clean sheet. They grew in confidence after a slow start and were passing the ball around with pace, but will still be somewhat disappointed with their chance creation. The Seagulls' 10 shots only accumulated an xG (expected goals) of 0.55, with most of their attempts coming from difficult positions. As for Burnley, they will be delighted. The Clarets kept the score level during Brighton's dominance and netted a goal just before half-time. However, they must be more careful with the ball if they want to stay ahead, as they have a passing accuracy of 78 per cent.

Odobert struck just before half-time to give Burnley the lead over Brighton. The Seagulls made six changes to their side and started slowly. Gudmundsson went close to breaking the deadlock, but his curling effort went just wide of the post. Amdouni then had a tame shot saved by Verbruggen before Brighton had their best spell. Gross' driven strike towards the near post was poked behind by the foot of Trafford. The Clarets gifted a chance to the home side after a loose pass in their own box. Ferguson dropped the ball back to Milner, but his low effort was pushed behind by the goalkeeper. However, it was the Kompany's team that scored just before the break. Odobert dribbled inside from the left and crashed his strike from outside of the box into the top corner.
