Match preview

Brighton have been one of the surprises of the new Premier League season and, despite having history against them, look set to push Leicester all the way.

The Seagulls have failed to win any of the eight Premier League meetings with City but have won three of their four games this term to emerge as potential European candidates.

After losing at home to Everton ahead of the international break, Graham Potter's men recaptured the winning thread with last Saturday's 1-0 victory at Brentford and have had over a week to prepare for this clash.

The same cannot be said for Leicester, who experienced both high and lows as they spurned a 2-0 lead in their Europa League opener against Napoli, eventually drawing 2-2.

Both sides come into the game with key defensive absentees and with the Foxes not quite at full throttle, Brighton can take a point.
