TEAM NEWS
BRIGHTON
Brighton slipped to a 2-1 defeat against Villa last time which was disappointing after taking an early lead before Mooy expelled.
Australia midfielder will serve his suspension here so as to provide an opening for March or potentially Alzate to come into the side.
Big-money summer signing Trossard is unused sub last week after returning from injury and Belgium could see some playing time here.
Predicted line-up (4-4-2): Ryan; Montoya, Webster, Dunk, Burn; Gross, Stephens, Propper, in March; Connolly, Maupay
Not available: Izquierdo (Injured), Bernardo (Hurt), Mooy (Suspended)
doubtful:
EVERTON
Everton take a vital win against West Ham last time after four defeats in a row to reduce the pressure on Marco Silva and his team.
Silva made some changes last time and it was successful, so there is every chance he will keep faith with the same starting eleven.
Coleman is available after suspension while Delph may fit but the duo may have to settle for a place on the bench at Amex.
Predicted line-up (4-2-3-1): Pickford; Sidibe, Keane, Mina, Digne; Andre Gomes, Davies; Walcott, Iwobi, Bernard; Richarlison
Not available: Gbamin (Injured)
Doubtful: Delph (Injured), Tosun (Hurt), Schneiderlin (Hurt), Mina (Injured)
Brighton vs Everton match preview
It has been very up and down start to life for Graham Potter and Brighton so far this season.
The Seagulls have played outstanding football at times, exhibited in their 3-0 demolition of Tottenham.
However, despite their dominance in a fair few games this season, Brighton which is not exactly where they want to be.
Potter's side have only won two matches so far this season, with a victory over the Spurs one of them.
The other came against Watford on the opening weekend of the season, in a 3-0 win.
Brighton drew 0-0 with Newcastle perhaps the best example of their struggle to turn dominance into results.
The Seagulls have a whopping 72% ownership, making 718 passes to Newcastle 280.
Despite their incredible dominance in the game, Newcastle actually managed more shots on target and came away with a point.
If Brighton are to move up the table, they need to make their dominance during their game.
Prediction
Everton got a much-needed win over West Ham last week but they are usually quite poor on the road. So I would go with Seagulls victory. Brighton fans, do not blame me if I am wrong.
