Brighton will be aiming to make it two home wins in a row when they welcome Everton to the Amex on Saturday.
The Seagulls have been inconsistent this season, winning just one of their last eight in the Premier League, but were unlucky in last weekend's 2-1 defeat at Aston Villa. Adam Webster put them ahead only for Aaron Mooy to be sent off before the break and, despite the best intentions of Graham Potter's side, the extra man told. Everton, in contrast, ended a run of four straight Premier League defeats by beating West Ham 2-0 in last Saturday's early game. That result lifted the pressure on Marco Silva and a first away win in the league for the season would further ease the pressure on the Portuguese. Silva could be without Yerry Mina, who limped off in the closing stages of the victory against the Hammers with a knee problem. Captain Seamus Coleman is back after suspension although he will be fortunate to dislodge Djibril Sidibe at right-back, while both Fabian Delph and Morgan Schneiderlin are available. For Brighton, Potter confirmed on Thursday that he had no fresh injury concerns, with Bernardo and Jose Izquierdo his only absentees. Jurgen Locadia's 59th-minute strike proved the difference as Brighton won this fixture 1-0 in January last year and that has been a popular outcome, with seven of their last nine Premier League home wins arriving via a one-goal margin.
