👉 Our prediction is: Brighton U21 to win the 1st half

Brighton U21 will head in to face Newcastle U21 with a tough task as the away side. Their recent results and performances have been far from impressive, but in our opinion, they are being a bit too underestimated.

We are tipping Brighton U21 to win the first half because we see decent value in their odds. They still possess enough quality to cause some concern against Newcastle U21, at least until half-time.
