Crucial players

The Magpies top goal scorer this season has been the former AFC Bournemouth man Callum Wilson. The Englishman signed for a fee of £20M in the 2022 summer transfer window. Wilson has now scored a fantastic seventeen goals in the Premier League this season. He has also managed to get four assists for this Newcastle side.

For Brighton their key man has been the World Cup winner Alexis Mac Allister. The Seagulls signed the Argentine from Argentinos Junior for just £9M in January 2019. There are rumours that the Argentine could be leaving Brighton in the summer transfer window. However, Brighton will be demanding a fee of £70M+ before even considering parting with their midfield talisman. This season Mac Allister has managed eleven goals contributions in the Premier League.

Earlier this season the two sides took a point a piece as they played out a goalless draw at the Amex.
