The Seagulls are now 8th in the Premier League with 52 points in 31 days, already two more than at the end of last season. Above all, they are only one unit away from Liverpool (7th), who have played one more match, and two lengths from Aston Villa (6th) and Tottenham (5th), who already have 33 Championship games. With two matches in a row to come at home against Manchester United (May 4) and Everton (May 8), Brighton can dream of Europe, and not just the Europa League Conference…

Keylor Navas’ teammates led 1-0 on the Brentford lawn thanks to Danilo (45th), but Toney (82nd) ​​then Dasilva (90th + 4) came to destroy their hopes at the end of the game.
