    MATCH FACTS

    Head-to-head


    • This is their first top-flight meeting. It becomes the 100th different fixture to be played in England's top four divisions.
    • Brighton have lost just one of their last 11 league matches against Cardiff (W3, D7), a 1-4 away defeat in 2016.


    Cardiff City

    • Cardiff have won just once in 15 Premier League matches, drawing three and losing 11.
    • They have equalled the club's worst record after 11 fixtures of a league season, last set in 1974 in the second tier.
    • The Bluebirds have failed to keep a clean sheet in eight league games, and are two short of conceding 100 Premier League goals.
    • They have also failed to score in six of their 11 games this season, a joint-league high with Huddersfield and Southampton.
    • Cardiff's shooting accuracy of 26% - hitting the target with 31 of 119 attempts on goal - is the worst in the competition.
    • The Bluebirds have completed 1,948 passes, 500 fewer than any other Premier League side, while their completion rate of 61% is also the lowest.
    • Cardiff have conceded the first goal in eight league fixtures this campaign, a joint-high with Fulham.

    • They have 14 points after 11 league matches, one fewer than at this stage last season.
    • The Seagulls and Manchester City are the only clubs not to have lost a Premier League point from a winning position in 2018-19.

    Bennett dropped again Morrison and Bamba must be undroppable with the mistakes they make

    Feel free to call me out on this if I'm wrong, but isn't Bennett the one who has lost his man for both the Spurs, and Leicester goals against us?

    I know fek all but looks a more balanced line-up to me. Two natural widemen and Camarasa inside where he can hopefully pull the strings more.

    Back to a 4-3-3 it looks to me.

    Really like the look of the three behind Paterson. Bennett unlucky to be dropped, also we really need to play a proper right back and get Bruno in the middle, his distribution is too poor to play full back

    Great ball in. Shocking defending. Again.

    Still, there's always the long throw right?

    FFS Bamba

    Brighton looked well drilled and tight. We gave them an easy one. If there wasn't still 80 mins left to change things I'd be furious now.

    We can't even keep hold of the Pissing ball - FFS we look at 6's and 7's

    Bamba nowhere near good enough for this level

    Re: CARDIFF CITY v BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION. Match thread

    Bamba at fault for the goal. Again.

    I agree. Unfortunately we are not good enough for this level. Ball chest comes into Ralls back to goal so he blindly lobs it over his head into "right areas"

    Shocking challenge, Cardiff players understandably angry

    Re: CARDIFF CITY v BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION. Match thread

    60 minutes versus 10 men. Come on City!

    Re: CARDIFF CITY v BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION. Match thread

    Advantage City. What a terrible challenge that was. It reminded me of Bogle at Bristol City (I believe).

    Re: CARDIFF CITY v BRIGHTON & HOVE ALBION. Match thread

    FFS missed it ....... what happened?

    I see they've had a player sent off
