Albion have reverted to two up front and brought back Sam Baldock to face his old club.
Baldock and Tomer Hemed resume their attacking partnership of early season as the Seagulls face Bristol City at revamped Ashton Gate tonight.
They are two of five changes to the XI which kicked off Saturday’s 4-1 defeat at Cardiff.

But skipper Gordon Greer must wait for his recall to the XI after injury as Chris Hughton keeps faith with Connor Goldson and Lewis Dunk.Liam Rosenior, who played the second half at Cardiff, keeps the left-back berth ahead of Inigo Calderon.
Beram Kayal returns to midfield and Jamie Murphy, below, comes back on to the left wing at the expense of Jiri Skalak.

Steve Sidwell, Andrew Crofts and Bobby Zamora also step down.
There is a welcome return to the bench for James Wilson after injury.
Bristol City's only change sees Alex Pearce replace the injured Nathan Baker in central defence. Pearce went on as sub for Baker during the 2-0 win at MK Dons on Saturday.
Bristol City: O'Donnell;*Vyner, Flint, Pearce, Golbourne;*Freeman, Pack, Smith, Bryan; Tomlin,*Kodjia. Subs: Fielding, Little, Williams, Reid, Wagstaff, Agard, Wilbraham.
Albion: Stockdale, Bruno, Dunk, Goldson, Rosenior; Knockaert, Stephens, Kayal, Murphy; Hemed, Baldock. Subs: Maenpaa, Calderon, Greer, Sidwell, Skalak, Zamora, Wilson.
