Mats Wieffer is set to line up at right back for Brighton in their opening game of the Premier League season and this is a very nice price for the 26-year-old to commit two fouls.

Wieffer lined up at right back in Brighton’s game against Tromso last time out as Fabian Hurzeler’s side attempt to qualify for the Conference League. He committed two fouls from 11 duels, also making three tackles.

He’s still not quite a natural right back having played most of his career in midfield, and I think Villa will look to target that weakness here through one of their new signings in Alejandro Garnacho. 

Wieffer also committed 2+ fouls in both his pre-season friendly appearances for Brighton against Bologna and Roma, committing four fouls inside just 59 minutes against the latter. 

He’s lining up against a Villa side who have drawn more fouls than any other Premier League side in each of the last two seasons. He faced off against Unai Emery’s side once last season, committing two fouls and registering the joint most defensive contributions in the encounter (17).

Garnacho has quite a bit to work on to bring out the talent we saw from him at Manchester United, but he has remained strong when it comes to winning fouls - drawing 23 across his 14 starts in the Premier League for Chelsea last season (1.63 per 90).

There’s clear value here when taking this angle with Paddy Power, it’s as short as 1.5 with other leading bookmakers.
