How Brighton & Hove Albion could line up against Sheffield United

How Brighton could line up against Sheffield United

Brighton & Hove Albion will be forced into a reshuffle against Sheffield United this weekend after losing key defender Ben White to suspension.

White was sent off in added time in Tuesday's 0-0 draw with Chelsea for two bookable offences, meaning that he will serve a one-match ban on Saturday.

Graham Potter is expected to draft in Joel Veltman to play alongside Adam Webster and Lewis Dunk, though Dan Burn - used at left wing-back last time out - can also shift across.

Further forward, Adam Lallana and Neal Maupay were named among the substitutes at Stamford Bridge, but one or both of those players could return to the XI at Bramall Lane.

That will not necessarily mean Danny Welbeck and Leandro Trossard dropping out, with Potter having the option of cramming a few attacking players in his side against the division's worst side.

There are question marks over the fitness of Aaron Connolly and Florin Andone, while Solly March and Tariq Lamptey have definitely been ruled out.

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