The 2018–19 season is Brighton & Hove Albion's 117th year in existence and second consecutive season in the Premier League.[1] Along with competing in the Premier League, the club also participated in the FA Cup and EFL Cup.

The season covers the period from 1 July 2018 to 30 June 2019.

Brighton beat Manchester United at home for the second season running on 19 August 2018. The game finished 3–2 to the Albion.[2] On 4 May 2019 Brighton's Premier League status was confirmed for a third season after bitter rivals Crystal Palace beat Cardiff 3–2 in Wales.[3] This confirmation came exactly a year after The Seagulls secured their safety in the 2017–18 season.[4]

In the FA Cup Brighton made the semi-final where they lost to Manchester City 1–0 at Wembley.[5][6][7][8][9] In the EFL Cup Brighton lost 1–0 to Southampton at home in the second round.[10]

On 10 May 2019 it was announced that captain, Bruno would be retiring from football. In his last game Brighton lost 4–1 to Manchester City. As a result City defended their Premier League title.[11][12]

Brighton sacked manager Chris Hughton on 13 May, one day after the final game of the season, due to a poor end of season run of three wins in 23 games meaning Brighton narrowly secured survival by two points.[13]

On 20 May Brighton appointed Graham Potter as the new manager.[14]
