Brighton vs Wolves: Premier League Match Preview

Match Context

Brighton host Wolves at Amex Stadium on 09 May 2026 in Premier League Regular Season - 36. Brighton sit 8th on 50 points with a goal difference of 7, while Wolves are 20th on 18 points and in the relegation places with a goal difference of -38.

Brighton Availability

Brighton face several midfield and attacking concerns.

  • D. Gomez (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • S. Tzimas (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • A. Webster (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • S. March (Muscle Injury) is doubtful.
  • J. Milner (Injury) is doubtful.
  • M. Wieffer (Injury) is doubtful.

Top scorer D. Welbeck, with 13 league goals and 1 assist, is available and expected to lead the line.

Wolves Availability

Wolves also have notable absentees, particularly in goal and attack.

  • L. Chiwome (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • E. Gonzalez (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • S. Johnstone (Knock) is sidelined.
  • L. Krejci (Neck Injury) is doubtful.
  • J. Sa (Ankle Injury) is doubtful.

Impact Summary

Brighton’s main attacking output remains intact with D. Welbeck available, preserving their 49-goal league haul. However, defensive depth is reduced by the loss of A. Webster, and wide threat could be limited if S. March does not feature.

Wolves, with only 25 league goals so far, lose additional attacking options in L. Chiwome and E. Gonzalez, while doubts over both senior goalkeepers J. Sa and S. Johnstone could further destabilize a defense that has already conceded 63 goals.
