Albion take their current three game unbeaten run to The Valley on Boxing Day in a match that they have been installed as favourites to win.
Sky Bet - the official sponsors of the Football League - have opened up their odds with quotes of 21/10 for Brighton, 13/10 for Middlesbrough and 12/5 for the DRAW.

Official bookmaking partner Sky Bet offer an 11/8 quote on a Seagulls success, while the Addicks are priced at 15/8. Completing the trio is the DRAW at 12/5.
Last Saturday my advice to back the draw paid dividends, and the advice is repeated again for this match. Although Brighton are rightly favourites, 12/5 is simply too big a price for the game to end all square.
The generous odds on offer for the game to end in a draw are additonally reflected in the half-time/full-time category where CHARLTON/DRAW @ 16/1 and ALBION/DRAW @ 16/1 should also both be taken.
For those who like to have an Blue-and-white tinted wager in their armoury, then a BRIGHTON 3-2 victory is 40/1 which is overpriced.
Finally, for a goalscorer, KEITH ANDREWS (18/1) and KEMY AGUSTIEN (22/1) are both worth a shout, bearing in mind that if either do not start, or come on after the first goal is scored, then stakes are refunded.*
Merry Christmas, good luck, and happy punting!
