Kauno ŽalgirisNo absentees
Brighton should have far too much for Lithuanian minnows Kauno Zalgiris on the south coast, and a routine home win drives our Brighton vs Kauno Zalgiris predictions as the Conference League league phase begins, kick-off 8pm on Thursday.
Our Brighton vs Kauno Zalgiris predictions and betting tips are below, with Anthony Eadson’s best bets and score prediction.
Premium Tips
Anthony Eadson backs a comfortable, goal-filled home win.
| Premium Tip | Odds | Why we’re backing it |
|---|---|---|
| Over 4.5 goals | 10/11 (Sky Bet) | Brighton are overwhelming favourites against a Kauno Zalgiris side that was beaten 5-0 and 2-1 by Dinamo Zagreb in Champions League qualifying and looks well out of its depth at this level. The Seagulls have shown they can rack up big scores, hammering Coventry 5-0 and beating Arsenal 3-0 in recent weeks, and should fill their boots against limited opponents at the Amex. With so little resistance expected, the goals ought to flow freely on the south coast. At 10/11, over 4.5 goals is the value play on a one-sided night in Sussex. |
| Pascal Struijk to be shown a card | 15/2 (bet365) | Pascal Struijk has picked up two bookings in four Premier League appearances this season, and both came in his last two league games, against Arsenal and Sunderland. Kauno Zalgiris will look to sit deep and break quickly, and those are exactly the situations where a centre-back has to make a tactical foul. bet365 are well clear of the market at 15/2 for Struijk to pick up a card, and his recent run of bookings makes this our bigger-priced angle. |

How Brighton go into the game
Brighton are flying, winning four of their last five games in all competitions, including a thumping 3-0 defeat of Arsenal and a 5-0 rout of Coventry.
The Seagulls have pace and quality all over the pitch and should ease through at a packed Amex.
How Kauno Zalgiris go into the game
Kauno Zalgiris reached the league phase the long way round, dropping down from Champions League and Europa League qualifying after defeats to Dinamo Zagreb and Besiktas.
The Lithuanian side lost those ties heavily, shipping five to Dinamo Zagreb, and look severely overmatched here.
Brighton vs Kauno Zalgiris head-to-head
The clubs have no competitive history, meeting for the first time in the Conference League.
