BRIGHTON – EVERTON STREAM LIVE
Despite the fact they sit 8th in the Premier League table ahead of the matchweek 31-closing clash, the gap between Carlo Ancelotti’s side and 4th-place Chelsea is just seven points after the Blues battered Crystal Palace on Saturday. A win over the 16th-place Seagulls would cut the gulf back to four, with a chance to reduce it to one when they play their other game in hand on Friday, at home against Tottenham.
Brighton, on the other hand, still have a bit of work to do to confirm their place in the Premier League again next season. Sure, Graham Potter’s bunch sits six points clear of 18th-place Fulham having played two fewer games, but as Brighton’s record shows (7W-11D-12L), they are more than capable of dropping points hand over fist down the stretch (17 instances of back-to-back outings without a win this season) to drag themselves back toward the danger zone.

Prediction
Everton have been exceedingly poor at home this season (5W-3D-7L), meaning their away form has been fantastic (9W-2D-3L) to keep them alive in the top-four conversation, making matters all the tougher for Brighton on Monday. Brighton 1-2 Everton.
