THE LOWDOWN
BRIGHTON
- Roberto De Zerbi’s Brighton and Hove Albion have been consistently entertaining since his appointment and The Seagulls are eyeing up potential UEFA Champions League football, sitting seven points behind Tottenham in fourth but with three games in hand.
- Tariq Lamptey is fully fit and available, confirmed by De Zerbi in his pre-match press conference. However, Jeremy Sarmiento has suffered an injury whilst on international duty with Ecuador.
BRENTFORD
- Another side seeking an unlikely European qualification is Brentford. Under the management of Thomas Frank, they have consistently grown and moved forward with The Bees now in a very good position to clinch a top seven finish.
- Kristoffer Ajer and Keane Lewis-Potter will miss this clash due to injury, whilst Shandon Baptiste is also unavailable due to suspension. Aaron Hickey had to be substituted due to injury against Spain in midweek but no update has been offered by Thomas Frank or Brentford just yet, whilst Vitaly Janelt is also a doubt.
THE TEAM NEWS
BRIGHTON
PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Steele; Veltman, Webster, Dunk, Estupinan; Gross, Caicedo; March, Mac Allister, Mitoma; Ferguson
UNAVAILABLE: Sarmiento (Injured), Moder (Injured), Lallana (Injured)
QUESTIONABLE:
BRENTFORD
PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Raya; Hickey, Pinnock, Mee, Henry; Dasilva, Norgaard, Jensen; Mbeumo, Toney, Wissa
UNAVAILABLE: Ajer (Injured), Baptiste (Suspended), Lewis-Potter (Injured)
QUESTIONABLE: Janelt (Injured)
THE PREDICTION
These two high-flyers have a lot in common both on and off the pitch. Their structures and general strategies have allowed the two clubs to not just punch above their weight by reaching the top-flight but sustaining themselves and thriving in the top-flight. Both teams are led by younger progressive coaches and the two sides will likely trade blows at the AMEX Stadium. As both sides chase European qualification, this should be quite entertaining and thrilling for the neutral, regardless of who comes out on top.
TIP: BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE
