Brighton just scraped survival last season, finishing two points above the relegation zone. Yet I think they're going to do a lot better this season under new manager, Graham Potter. Their former boss Chris Hughton is only good for so long; his record shows that after a certain point, he's unable to do much with a team, and they end up languishing in the bottom half of the table. Hughton works best with a Championship side - let's hope Potter works best with a Premier League side.

The new signings are pretty good, with Aaron Mooy, Neal Maupay, and Leandro Trossard all expected to play a key part in this campaign, but still, the team lacks quality as a whole. The main reason why I think they'll finish as high as I've placed them on this list is due to the fact that the teams below them are worse and will probably make more errors. If Brighton can remain somewhat consistent throughout the season, they'll survive.
