Chris Hughton: 'Brighton & Hove Albion have eight massive games to stay up'

Chris Hughton claims that Brighton have "eight massive games" to seal their place in the Championship for another season.

Brighton & Hove Albion boss Chris Hughton has claimed that his side have "eight massive games" to secure their survival in the Championship.

The Seagulls edged eight points clear of the relegation zone on Tuesday thanks to a goalless draw with Millwall.

While admitting that he has not set his team a points target, Hughton remains hopeful that they can seal their place in the league for another season.

"I see it as eight massive games," he told the club's official website. "My only concern is where we are in the table in that bottom group, but even if you look at the top, it's chopping and changing and Watford have gone top now. That's how the league is.

"There will be eight big games for every team in this division. I just couldn't tell you how many points we'd need because it is that type of league."

Brighton continue their fight for survival on Saturday when they face Blackburn Rovers at Ewood Park.
