NEIL WARNOCK:
Injury news
Any other knocks?
“There’a couple. One lad’s had a scan, so I’ll know more today.
“I don’’t want to play anyone that’s not 100 per cent. The lad wants to play but we’ve got to make a decision.”
Sol Bamba and Callum Paterson still about?
“They are. Callum’s moaning as always. Big Sol’s still everybody’s friend. So they’re good lads. They’re all in it together.”

About Brighton & Hove AlbionBrighton & Hove Albion Football Club, commonly referred to as Brighton, is a professional football club from Brighton where they play in the edge of the city in Falmer, England. They compete in the Premier League, the top tier of the English football league system. Brighton's home ground is the 30,750-capacity Falmer Stadium.
Founded in 1901, and nicknamed the "Seagulls" or "Albion", Brighton played their early professional football in the Southern League, before being elected to the Football League in 1920. The club enjoyed greatest prominence between 1979 and 1983 when they played in the First Division and reached the 1983 FA Cup Final, losing to Manchester United after a replay. They were relegated from the First Division in the same season.
By the late 1990s, Brighton had slipped to the fourth tier of English football and were in financial trouble. After narrowly avoiding relegation from the Football League to the Conference in 1997, a boardroom takeover saved the club from liquidation. Successive promotions in 2001 and 2002 brought Brighton back to the second tier, and in 2011, the club moved into the Falmer Stadium after 14 years without a permanent home ground. In the 2016–17 season, Brighton finished second in the EFL Championship and were thus promoted to the Premier League, ending a 34-year absence from the top flight.
Previous MeetingWe came from behind to beat Brighton 2-1 in November. Sol Bamba got the injury time winner after Callum Paterson had cancelled out Lewis Dunk’s opener. Dale Stephens was sent off for the visitors.
