Brighton were slight favorites to win the match but the team, plagued with injury and Mitoma being called up for the Asian Games, they weren't really on their full squad. Brighton still created many chances but couldn't capitalize on any. Had 8 shots on target and 3 big chances missed, just couldn't get on the scoring sheet. West Ham won their previous match while being away to Arsenal, their fans would have expected another positive result and honestly, a draw even though hampers their chances to get into European football spots, still is a fairly good result as they looked outclassed by Brighton.
At first I favored West Ham because their last match was very impressive but apparently they didn't put in much effort in this match instead Brighton controlled the match with ball possession and shots unfortunately there were no goals, I assume this is just an unlucky day for Brighton. A draw does not change the position of the two teams in the standings West Ham and Brighton need more effort to catch Tottenham at least 5 more points are needed while Manchester United and Newcastle are stuck in positions 8-9 these 5 clubs are fighting to get tickets to the European league.
West Ham United and Brighton shared a point as the match ended in a goalless draw. Brighton performed better and had opportunities to win the game. However, they lacked clinical finishing and couldn't break through the defense of the opposing team. It seemed like they were content with a draw at home. Currently sitting in 7th place, it's a decent position for them at this stage of the season!
