"Brighton got back to winning ways following a 2-0 victory over Burnley at the American Express Stadium. Goals from Georginio Rutter and Yasin Ayari ended the Seagulls' run of six Premier League matches without a win. Fabian Hurzeler's side made a purposeful start to the contest. After Joel Veltman headed over, they thought they had taken the lead when Charalampos Koustoulas drilled home, only to be denied by the offside flag."
"Lewis Dunk then headed over from Ferdi Kadioglu's free-kick before the hosts broke the deadlock on 29 minutes. Ayari's shot deflected off Koustoulas and straight to Rutter, who drove the ball past Martin Dubravka. At the other end, Lucas Pires called Bart Verbruggen into action in first-half stoppage time, but the hosts doubled their lead just after half-time. Burnley were sloppy on the edge of their own penalty area, and Ayari pounced by drilling a reverse shot beyond Dubravka and into the bottom-left corner."
Brighton returned to winning ways with a 2-0 home victory over Burnley at the American Express Stadium. Georginio Rutter opened the scoring on 29 minutes after Yasin Ayari's shot deflected to him, and Ayari added a second just after half-time with a drilled reverse shot into the bottom-left corner. Brighton created early chances through Joel Veltman and Lewis Dunk, and Bart Verbruggen was called into action for Burnley in stoppage time. Loum Tchaouna had a header cleared off the line, and Maxim De Cuyper struck a free-kick against the post. Brighton have now lost only one of their last 14 Premier League home matches.
