Brighton earned just a fourth win of 2024.
Aston Villa’s quest for Champions League qualification suffered a setback after Joao Pedro ended Brighton’s six-match Premier League winless run with a dramatic 87th-minute winner.
Second-choice keeper Olsen produced a series of fine stops to prevent the Seagulls taking an earlier lead, while Pascal Gross had a second-half finish ruled out for offside following a lengthy VAR review. Manager Emery recalled defensive duo Diego Carlos and Pau Torres following a difficult evening against the Greek side, while Brighton’s starting XI showed three changes from last week’s dismal 3-0 defeat at Bournemouth.
Villa’s travelling fans repeatedly revelled in Birmingham’s relegation from the Sky Bet Championship, which was confirmed on Saturday. Having moments earlier been unable to generate power on a back-post volley as he stretched to reach Pedro’s cross from the right, the Ivory Coast international played through Gross, only for Olsen to save with his feet.
Germany midfielder Gross turned home Igor Julio’s left-wing cross in the 68th minute but the finish was disallowed for a marginal offside.
