Match Report

Leeds took a surprise lead at the Amex when Jayden Bogle, who had been booked just minutes earlier, converted in the 15th minute to give the visitors a 1–0 advantage they carried into half-time. Brighton dominated possession — finishing the game with 67% of the ball and 20 total shots to Leeds' 10 — but struggled to find a way through before the break.

The hosts pressed hard after the interval and were rewarded in the 71st minute when Luka Vušković equalised to make it 1–1, capping a strong second-half showing from Brighton. The match was disrupted by a flurry of substitutions and bookings either side of that goal, with five yellow cards distributed across both sides throughout the contest.

Despite Brighton's territorial dominance, the game ended level, with both sides finishing equal on shots on target at five apiece. Our pre-match AI model had rated a Brighton win as the most likely outcome at 47%, and while the Seagulls did avoid defeat, they were ultimately unable to convert their pressure into all three points.
