The latest news and reaction

Fresh headlines and fan reaction from BBC Sport, the Guardian and the club's own subreddit, newest at the top. Every item opens on its source.

Injuries, suspensions and the confirmed eleven

It is pre-season, the 2026/27 campaign has not kicked off, and there is no honest team news to report yet. Confirmed lineups and any fitness or suspension calls tend to land about an hour before kickoff, and this is where they will appear once they do.

The list scrolls on its own and pauses when you hover or focus it. Nothing above is a prediction, it is an honest holding state until the first confirmed lineup drops.

Where to get confirmed team news

When the team sheet drops, it comes from here first. These are the accounts that confirm it rather than guess at it.

The season in numbers

Every chart here comes from the same feed behind our live scores: goals by minute, home and away, the shapes they set up in, the full squad’s numbers and the head-to-head record. This season fills in live from the opening weekend; last season is settled.

How the warm-ups are going

The friendly results so far, before the league gets going. It steps aside for the live table and stats the moment the season kicks off on 21 August.

Nothing has been played yet

The 2026/27 Premier League season has not kicked off, so every figure below sits at zero. This is an honest empty state, not a data problem. The live table, form and charts will start filling from the first whistle of matchday one.

The last seven completed campaigns

Brighton have played in the Premier League every year since winning promotion in 2017. Their sixth place finish in 2022/23 was the highest in the club's history and earned a first ever qualification for European football.

Final positions and points as recorded in the official Premier League standings. The 2025/26 season is treated as complete on its own settled numbers once verified against the official table.

The club's long-standing records

A handful of well documented club records, several of them set in the interwar years at the old Goldstone Ground and a couple set in the modern Premier League era. Only figures that are firmly established are shown here.

Cook and Wilson set their marks across the 1920s and 1930s and neither has been beaten since. The Caicedo sale was a British transfer record at the time it was agreed.

Go deeper into the data

This panel keeps to settled, well established facts. For the complete and continually updated picture, including squad stats, minutes, expected goals and full season by season history, the official and specialist sources below are the ones to trust.

The trophy cabinet

Brighton have never won the English top flight or the FA Cup, and their honours sit mainly in the lower divisions alongside a Charity Shield from well over a century ago. Here is the record as it stands, kept honest about the gaps as well as the wins.

Fan channels and watchalongs

Brighton's supporter media is a smaller, community-run world than you find at the biggest clubs, built around a handful of long-standing channels and podcasts rather than the large live watchalong operations some rivals have. The official channel is the main home for club video, and the independent channels below are run by supporters, so their views are their own. If you want more, a quick YouTube search turns up the current crop of reaction and watchalong videos.

Where Brighton fans talk

The community and the accounts worth keeping open through the season. Each opens in a new tab.

Matchday at The American Express Stadium

Everything for a home game: getting a ticket, the ground itself, getting there and parking, and where to eat and drink around it. For away days, the travel planner is further down.

Getting tickets

Home league games at the Amex are popular and often sell out to members, so the official site is the place to start for tickets and the memberships that give you the chance to buy them. Availability and prices vary from match to match and change through the season, so we do not quote figures or promise seats here. Always buy through the club's official channels.

Getting there and parking

Getting to the Amex is built around the train. Falmer railway station sits right next to the ground on the line between Brighton and Lewes, with extra services laid on around kick-off, and it is a short walk from the University of Sussex and University of Brighton campuses. Because the stadium is on the edge of the South Downs, the train is comfortably the easiest way in and out.

There is no general public parking at the stadium and matchday parking nearby is limited and restricted by a residents' scheme, so driving and parking on the day is difficult. The club runs official park-and-ride sites for supporters who do drive, and pre-booking one of those is the reliable option rather than trying to park locally. For the full, up-to-date travel guidance, station details and park-and-ride booking, the club's official directions page is the place to check before you set off.

Food, drink and a look inside

Where to eat and drink before a game near The American Express Stadium, and how to get a look inside on a non-matchday.

The official Brighton & Hove Albion store

Shirts, training wear and the rest of the official range are sold through the Brighton & Hove Albion store, online and in the ground. Designs and prices change through the season, so the store is the place to see what is available now.
