Albion stretched their unbeaten record to 14 games - but might feel they could have won at Reading.
The Seagulls were held to a 1-1 draw with all the action of note coming in a thrilling second half.
Jamie Murphy tucked away Tomer Hemed's low cross at the far post for their 51st-minute opener.
But Matej Vydra snapped up his first goal for Reading on 78 minutes by converting the rebound after David Stockdale failed to hold a Nick Blackman shot.

The game came alive in stunning fashion after a dull first half.Bruno and Sam Baldock were involved in the patient right wing build-up which led to the opening goal.
The Seagulls were almost gifted a second when Ali Al-Habsi had to race back frantically to hack a stray Michael Hector back pass away from goal.

Reading draw level
But Reading had some good chances as they piled men forward and Stockdale made a couple of sharp saves before Vydra pounced.
Albion will check on Bruno, who limped off just before the equaliser. He was suffering from cramp.
