• Brighton begin their Europa Conference League campaign as one of the favourites to go deep in the competition, and they arrive in strong form with just one defeat from nine matches across all competitions (W6, D2).
• Fabian Hürzeler’s side head back to the south coast after extending their winning streak to four games with a 2–0 victory at Sunderland, achieved despite playing with ten men, underlining both resilience and momentum.
• The Seagulls have now won four straight European home games without conceding, and they’ve scored 3+ goals in each of their last five competitive home victories. It’s no surprise to see Brighton priced as heavy odds‑on favourites, with the question more likely being how many they can put past Thursday’s visitors.

• Kauno Žalgiris enter their first ever European campaign after lifting the Lithuanian title last season, becoming only the fourth Lithuanian club to feature in major European competition.
• Defeats to Dinamo Zagreb and Beşiktaş in Champions League and Europa League qualifying show the scale of the challenge, and they now face one of the toughest assignments in the league phase as they chase a historic first win for Lithuania at this level.
• It’s hard to build a case for the visitors, but punters can back Kauno Žalgiris at 50/1 with William Hill to pull off one of the shocks of the campaign.
