Brighton & Hove Albion vs West Ham United LIVE: Premier League latest score, goals and updates from fixture

Brighton & Hove Albion beat a listless West Ham United 4-0 at home in the Premier League on Saturday in a one-sided performance to enhance their chances of qualifying for European competition next season.

Alexis Mac Allister, Joel Veltman, Kaoru Mitoma and Danny Welbeck were the scorers as Brighton dominated from start to finish.

Mac Allister’s first-half penalty was followed by an unusual finish off his chest from Veltman in the 51st minute.

Mitoma then turned the ball in at the back post 18 minutes later before substitute Welbeck hammered home on the stroke of fulltime as Brighton moved onto 38 points, one behind seventh placed Fulham, who have played two matches more.

West Ham remain in 16th spot, just above the relegation zone.
