Not sure how many U23s we have left to choose from but those that are left face a stiff task in the latest installment of the Premier League International cup (so basically we're already in europe) , the match kicks off at 7pm at the Amex Elite Football Performance Centre .

Match preview to follow later and no idea if this will be streamed to the paying public as yet .

Got my ticket but after being stood in the snow at Craven Cottage last night I'm wearing about 3 layers of thermals to this.

Brighton & Hove Albion’s under-23s welcome European giants Bayern Munich to the American Express Elite Football Performance Centre this evening, kick-off 7pm, as Simon Rusk’s team look to secure qualification in the Premier League International Cup.

The Seagulls can progress to the last eight of the competition with a point against their German opponents tonight, however defeat for Albion will see them exit after three matches in Group D.

Rusk’s side shared a 2-2 draw with Everton on their competition debut, before claiming three points against Benfica on the south coast, thanks to goals from Viktor Gyokeres and Aaron Connolly in a 2-0 victory.

Bayern opened their account with a 4-1 win over the Toffees last month, but were unable to add further points leading into tonight’s match, following a 1-0 defeat to Benfica on Sunday afternoon at Aldershot FC.



Tonight’s game will decide the final qualifier to the knockout stages, with Southampton, Reading, Tottenham Hotspur, Villarreal and Manchester United winning their groups to progress, while Leicester City and Dinamo Zagreb reach the next stage as the best second-placed teams.

Albion are currently three matches unbeaten, having ended 2018 with a 4-2 win against West Ham United, before 2-2 and 1-1 draws against Arsenal and Liverpool respectively.

Supporters can watch a live stream of tonight's match on the club's YouTube channel from 7pm.

Alternatively, fans can also follow a live text blog on the Match Centre this evening, with a match report, and gallery to be uploaded after the full-time whistle.

The lesser-spotted Ahannach is on the subs bench tonight. Also of note: Sanchez is in goal and Gyokeres leads the line. Interesting.

There is a youngish look to the Albion line-up as four scholar-age lads make the starting XI (Roberts, Gwargis, Cashman and Longman). Robert Sanchez gets the call between the sticks. Soufyan Ahannach makes his long-awaited return on the bench after a serious double-leg break and Bojan Radulovic Samoukovic also makes the bench after being recalled from his loan at RCD Espanyol B.

I am gutted this wasn't at the Amex. There's probably a reason, but they do play the odd U23 game there and this one seems to have made more sense than most given the nature of the opposition. I know I could have got myself a ticket for the training ground, but by all accounts (I admit I've not been) it's not really the same as attending a match at a proper ground - even local non-league.
