Brighton
Newcastle
- Roberto De Zerbi may be tempted to ring the changes following a 3-1 defeat at West Ham but it was something of a freak result so expect most to keep their places.
- Joao Pedro should come into the attack, while the likes of Jason Steele, Jan Paul van Hecke, Joel Veltman and Mahmoud Dahoud are also waiting in the wings.
- Sven Botman has suffered an ankle injury, which could see new signing Lewis Hall thrust into action sooner than Eddie Howe would perhaps have liked given Dan Burn will likely shift to centre-back.
- Matt Targett is the alternative at left-back and may get the nod this time around.
- Joelinton is a doubt once again due to a knee injury, with Sean Longstaff waiting to deputise in the continued absence of Joe Willock.
- Elsewhere the likes of Harvey Barnes and Callum Wilson may continue to have to bide their time for a first start of the season.
Evan Ferguson is a special talent
Newcastle having a dip in form after losing to 10 man Liverpool and now currently losing 3-0 at Brighton.
Over 2.5 goals
@Marbella Goals were never in doubt :)
Newcastle's squad already feeling the strain of juggling the league and European football? ... even though they haven't played a single European fixture yet.
It will be an exciting match. Both teams have a good attack. It will be a difficult match for Newcastle
Newcastle to win

Evan Ferguson will be the next player to leave Brighton for big money.
