Brighton midfielder Pascal Gross, speaking to Sky Sports: "No. We are not in a title race. But we have started the season really well. It's the beginning of the season.

"You see the Premier League, the margins, you look at the results - we are not getting carried away yet. Every game we have to suffer a lot. Sometimes it is momentum. But we are really pleased to head into the international break like this."

Could Brighton really do the impossible and win the Premier League this season?

Try telling their supporters otherwise after another impressive performance secured a seventh league win of the campaign and lifted them up to second place, five points behind leaders Arsenal after 10 games.

The Seagulls look unstoppable at the moment. They are the highest scorers in the division and also boast the second-best defensive record.

Their victory over Brentford was made all the more straightforward after the Bees were reduced to 10 men with less than a third of the match played at the Amex Stadium.

Even before that, though, Brighton were clearly the team in the ascendancy and had caused the visitors a handful of problems.

Boss Fabian Hurzeler may not be dreaming of a title challenge just yet, but after another weekend in which his side's remarkable campaign gathered further momentum, it may only be a matter of time before their supporters start to believe the impossible could become reality.

I just can't see past Brighton here - they are superbly organised, carry a threat going forward and defend well. Their bench is strong as well.

Brentford are also going well and are capable of causing them a problem or two - but, after watching Brighton beat Manchester City at Etihad Stadium last week, I am backing Fabian Hurzeler's side here.

I always think the Bees have got a goal in them, so I am going to say they will score, but the Seagulls are smart enough to come out on top.

People seem to be unsure whether Brighton are really in the title race or not, but they are certainly in the mix for second place if Arsenal are the team we all think are going to win it.

Sutton's prediction: 2-1
