Team News

Brighton
Bournemouth
  • Brighton will remain without Julio Enciso, who faces an extended period out injured.
  • Jakub Moder will also miss this one through injury.
  • Evan Ferguson and Lewis Dunk both missed Thursday's Europa League opener, with a muscle issue and illness respectively, while James Milner was forced off through injury in the second half.
  • The trio will need to be assessed before this one, but Dunk is likely to return.
  • Andoni Iraola is still without new signings Tyler Adams and Alex Scott through injury, with a total of four players still sidelined for the Cherries.
  • Lewis Cook's impressive showing against Chelsea last time out should see the midfielder keep his place here.

Prediction

  • After the highs of last weekend's convincing win at Old Trafford, Brighton were brought down to Earth with a 3-2 defeat at home to Greek side AEK Athens in their first ever European fixture.
  • Roberto De Zerbi's side have, nonetheless, made a strong start to 2023/24 and sit fifth in the Premier League heading into this one.
  • Bournemouth are still hunting down their first Premier League victory under new boss Andoni Iraola, but will have taken encouragement from last weekend's 0-0 draw at home to Chelsea.
  • The Cherries have drawn their last two and are currently 16th in the table, on three points.
  • This is certain to be a close affair, but Brighton should make it three Premier League wins in a row here.
