Brighton and Aston Villa kick off their English Premier League campaigns against each other at the American Express Stadium on Sunday.

Aston Villa have traditionally dominated this fixture, with Brighton beating them only once in their last 11 encounters. In fact, Villa won both of their matches against Brighton in the last season's Premier League, with a 4-3 away victory and a 1-0 win at Villa Park.

Brighton finished eighth in the EPL table last term, securing their place in this season's UEFA Conference League playoff round. They have played only two pre-season friendly matches, winning both against Italian Serie A sides Roma (3-0) and Bologna (1-0).

Aston Villa enjoyed an excellent 2025-26 season, finishing fourth in the Premier League with 65 points to secure Champions League football. However, their UEFA Super Cup match against Paris Saint-Germain ended in a 2-1 defeat.
