Bryan Mbeumo gave his side the lead from the penalty spot before Brighton levelled just moments later through Pascal Groß.
With just three points separating both clubs a win for Brentford could see them leapfrog their opposition into eighth place.
It looked like they would do just that after Vitaly Janelt was dragged down in the box by a Brighton player giving the referee no choice but to point to the spot, Mbeumo calmly dispatched.
However, the lead didn’t last long as Groß rifled a strike from the edge of the area into the bottom corner just minutes later.
