Brighton vs. Burnley

Brighton & Hove Albion return to the Amex after picking up their first victory of the season last weekend against Birmingham City.

Burnley have started the season in fine form and have managed seven points from a possible nine to move fourth in the Championship.

For Brighton, Craig Mackail-Smith continues his recovery but is not expected to return to the side just yet.

Burnley's main injury blow is Ross Wallace, who is likely to miss the rest of the year as he requires surgery on a knee injury.
