Defeat against Man City in their opener wasn't surprising, but a loss to newly promoted Nottingham Forest last week certainly was. Manager David Moyes will be determined to at least pick up a point in this game. That won't be an easy task, though, because Brighton only finished two places below the Hammers last season and have started the season very well, with a victory over Man Utd and a draw with Newcastle. Yes, they've lost two big players, Marc Cucurella and Yves Bissouma, this summer - but they've also brought in defender Pervis Estupinan and forwards Simon Adingra and Julio Enciso to freshen up the squad. This one could go either way, so find out what happens by watching a West Ham vs Brighton live stream.
