Match officials for Brighton's upcoming Premier League match have been appointed. Stuart Attwell, a 43-year-old experienced referee, will take charge at the Amex Stadium. Attwell began the new campaign with a UEFA Conference League Qualifying tie before overseeing a dramatic late draw between Newcastle United and Liverpool in the Premier League's opening weekend.
With 244 Premier League games under his belt, Attwell has a mixed record with Brighton, winning 12 of their 25 fixtures together, drawing three times, and losing three. Attwell has previously refereed Brighton's memorable 2-1 home victory over West Ham United, where goals came from Brenden Aaronson and Joe Rodon. Brighton, on the other hand, have won 13 of their 31 matches officiated by Attwell, losing 10 times.
Most recently, the Seagulls drew 2-2 with Tottenham in the previous season's campaign. The touchlines will be run by Constantine Hatzidakis and Nick Hopton, with John Busby appointed as the Fourth Official. James Bell will serve as the Video Assistant Referee (VAR), with Edward Smart as the Additional VAR.
