Brighton & Hove Albion – Your Quick Guide to the Seagulls

If you’re curious about the Sussex side that’s been turning heads in the Premier League, you’re in the right place. Brighton & Hove Albion, known as the Seagulls, have a story that blends a modest hometown vibe with some serious top‑flight ambition.

Founded back in 1901, the club spent most of its early years bouncing between lower leagues. The big break came in 2017 when they finally clinched promotion to the Premier League for the first time. Since then, they’ve become a regular fixture, battling big clubs and pulling off surprises that keep fans on the edge of their seats.

How the Team Plays Right Now

This season, Brighton’s game plan relies on solid defending and quick transitions. Manager Roberto De Michele likes his side to press high, win the ball early, and hit the opposition with fast, accurate passes. Players like Alexis Mac Allister and Lewis Dunk give the midfield that extra spark, while the front‑line duo of Danny Welbeck and Evan Morrison looks to finish chances.

One thing you’ll notice is the consistency at the back. Goalkeeper Robert Sánchez has become a reliable last line, and centre‑backs Joel Veltman and Liam Butt keep things tight. When they’re on form, Brighton can hold its own against any top‑six team.

Beyond the tactics, the club’s culture makes it special. The Amex Stadium sits right on the seafront, giving you a sea view while you watch the match. The atmosphere is friendly but fierce – locals wear blue and white, and you’ll hear the chant "We love you Brighton" echo through the stands.
