The 2018-19 campaign delivered a dramatic, hard-fought Premier League survival for Brighton & Hove Albion as The Seagulls finished a crucial 17th, narrowly avoiding relegation by just two points. Leading the charge was the ever-reliable veteran striker Glenn Murray, whose 13 league goals proved vital. The season also featured a memorable FA Cup run that saw the club reach the semi-finals for the first time since 1983. However, despite securing their top-flight status, the campaign ended on a turbulent note with the sacking of manager Chris Hughton, marking a difficult end to a year of intense drama and ultimately successful consolidation.
