Preview: Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Leeds United

Brighton vs. Leeds

Brighton & Hove Albion host Leeds United in the Championship on Friday looking for their first win in six games.

The Seagulls lie 10th in the Championship, but have picked up just three points since beating Millwall 2-1 at the New Den at the end of September.

Neil Warnock's men come into the game on the back of a 3-0 victory over Southampton in the League Cup.

They are on the same points as their hosts, but are a place further back by virtue of an inferior goal difference.

Neither Warnock nor Gus Poyet are expected to tinker too much with their lineups.

Last year's encounter ended 3-3 thanks to Ross McCormack's late leveller for Leeds, who were then managed by Simon Grayson.

Recent form:

Brighton: DLLDD Leeds: LDDWD

Possible lineups:

Brighton: Kuszczak; Bruno, Greer, El-Abd, Bridge; Hammond, Crofts, Lopez, Bridcutt; Mackail-Smith, Barnes

Leeds: Ashdown; Peltier, Lees, Pearce, White; Pugh, Austin, Brown, Tonge; Becchio, Diouf

Sports Mole says: 2-1
