Albion v Swansea

EFL CUP
(Carabao Cup)
Third Round
Venue: The American Express Community Stadium
Date: Wednesday 22nd September 2021
Kick-off: 19:30 BST
Referee: Michael Salisbury
Assistants: Stuart Burt, Edward Smart
Fourth Official: James Linington
​

Tariq Lamptey could make his return from injury in Brighton's Carabao Cup third-round game with Swansea on Wednesday.

The 20-year-old right-back has not played since suffering a hamstring injury on 16 December 2020.

He was an unused substitute in Sunday's 2-1 Premier League win over Leicester.

"He is in the squad, in the 18, so there's a good chance," boss Graham Potter said. "It would be fantastic for everybody for him to be on the pitch."

Both managers are planning to make changes to their first team.

Swansea midfielder Korey Smith is fit again after a calf injury and could make his first appearance since the opening day.

Potter managed the Swans in 2018-19, while Swansea boss Russell Martin is from Brighton.

"I am sure with the right support, patience and time that we will see Swansea back in the Premier League with Russell, because I think there is huge potential there," said Potter.

We can beat anyone on our day.

I would love to see us take the cup competions seriously. Top ten in the Premier League is in the bag , Top ten in the Premier League is a brilliant goal to have but I would so love to see us actually win something.

Why not have a crack at the cup Brighton?

We need to win this . A cup victory at Wembley would show that we have arrived .
Great if Tarik plays tonight but we trust GP to do the right thing.

Had a ticket, now I can’t go. I noticed it’s a 19:30. Is it on TV somewhere?

Don’t think it’s on TV. My guess is the early kick off is to encourage parents to bring children and not be too late home for bed.

Doesn't appear to be being shown live anywhere in the world so no chance of a stream. The TV rights for these matches are very limited it seems.

Not to be the biggest pedantic **** of all time, but Swansea have a new badge.

****, really? Didn't think that was anywhere near a strong enough word to get starred.

Arggh! So frustrating. Had tickets in the front row for a change. Was looking forward to the Russell Martin derby.

Looking like a bumper audience this evening, only 1,800 tickets remain available and they're selling like hot cakes this morning. Kudos to PB for the fantastic discounts on pricing.

Hope you're on the mend. Someone posted somewhere that it was being broadcast in China, so there might be some flowing water type activity

Thanks!

That’s great news. If not, I’ll have Johnny and Warren.

That swan is out of all proportion to the castle. Unless it is either a giant genetically-modified swan or a sandcastle. But nothing on the badge makes that clear either way. I'd want a refund.

Not live on tv but Quest tv (channel 169 on virgin) has highlights (probably just goals) on at 10.30 tonight or Sky Sports news have live round ups and goals from all the games.
