So far this season:

Lost, didn't score
Won, didn't concede
Lost, didn't score
Won, didn't concede

Not looking good for today.

Venue: The American Express Community Stadium
Kick Off: 15.00
Referee: Graham Scott

Brighton go into Saturday's match against Bolton buoyed by Tuesday nights 2-0 victory at Elland Road. Man of the Match Joao Teixeira will be looking to make his home debut for the Seagulls as will Dutch midfielder Danny Holla. Joe Bennett signed on loan for the rest of the season from Aston Villa will be expected to start at the expense of Adam Chicksen whilst midfield playmaker Paddy McCourt may have to make do with a place on the bench.

Brighton boss Sami Hyypia has a Spanish dilemma at right back where he will have to choose between Inigo Calderon and Bruno Saltor whilst Lewis Dunk will be hopeful of retaining his place at Centre Back alongside skipper Gordon Greer although Aaron Hughes will be pushing hard for a start.

My prediction? 3-1 Albion. Teixeira, CMS x 2

Love to see this!

Wish I'd taken that - Always reluctant to bet on the Albion though!

Gone for 4 aways today - Cardiff, Coventry, Luton and Pompey 250 quid on a fiver stake!

 

[SeagullinExile]

This is my concern, we need an early goal otherwise the jitters will set in.

With Tex and Holla we have a little bit more creativity about us now don't you think?

I hope so but will reserve judgement as not seen us play yet this season.

Yes, certainly hope so!

 

[SeagullinExile]

Yes, certainly hope so!

I just hope Tuesday didn't take too much outa them

Bruno keeps his midfield spot then. Decent bench.

Even young march has turned into a crock

Looks good to me. Quiet on here today.............

How does that team set up? Crofts surely doesn't play as a forward?

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

No Toko in the 18 with JFC starting and McCourt on the bench

I was thinking.....

Stockdale

Calderon~Greer~Dunk~Bennett

Crofts~Holla~Caskey

Bruno~Teixeira

Macca​

4-1-4-1 ? CMS up front with Tex just behind in a free role ?

 

[RexCathedra]

Even young march has turned into a crock

Or Southampton insisted on it....

 

[One Love]

No Toko in the 18 with JFC starting and McCourt on the bench

He's not match-fit yet

 

[Algernon]

BHA 2-1 win

JFC fluke (38 mins)
Holla (54 mins)
