How Brighton & Hove Albion could line up against Newcastle United

How Brighton could line up against Newcastle

Brighton & Hove Albion will be looking to give their survival hopes another huge boost when they welcome Newcastle United in the Premier League on Saturday evening.

The Seagulls, who are currently 16th in the table, three points clear of the relegation zone, will again be without the services of Florin Andone, Solly March, Adam Webster, Tariq Lamptey and Aaron Connolly though injury.

There was also a concern over the availability of Dan Burn, with the defender forced off against Southampton last weekend due to a hamstring problem.

However, Brighton boss Graham Potter revealed during his pre-match press conference that Burn would train on Friday and should be available for selection this weekend.

The manner of the performance in the 2-1 win at Southampton means that Potter could decide to select an unchanged team for the clash with Steve Bruce's side.

Adam Lallana and Danny Welbeck were both impressive against the Saints and should again feature alongside the likes of Neal Maupay and Leandro Trossard.

Davy Propper and Alexis Mac Allister are among the options for change, but the pair are expected to be on the bench alongside the likes of Andi Zeqiri.

Brighton possible starting lineup: Sanchez; Veltman, White, Dunk, Burn; Gross, Lallana, Bissouma, Trossard; Welbeck, Maupay
