Brighton Over 2.5 Corners

Our AI reasoning
Brighton consistently produce over five corners away from home; against a City side that often concedes set‑pieces, the 2.5‑corner line is almost a certainty, reinforced by Brighton’s recent form of creating pressure and winning the ball in dangerous areas.
