Brighton vs Bournemouth Lineups and Last Match
Brighton
Brighton put in a true team performance at Old Trafford last time out and it earned them an excellent 3-1 victory. Welbeck scored against his former employers to get the ball rolling in the 20th minute and early in the second half, Gross finished off a fantastic team goal to make it 2-0. Substitute Pedro sealed the victory with a goal in the 71st minute and although Man Utd pulled a goal back soon after, the damage had already been done and there was no way back for the home side. Espinola and Moder look set to miss out once again this weekend but March is hoping to return following a thigh injury.
Predicted Lineup – Steele (GK), Veltman, Dunk, Lamptey, van Hecke, Lallana, Groß, Dahoud, Mitoma, Welbeck & Adingra
Bournemouth
Bournemouth played out yet another stalemate last weekend their third of the campaign, when they played host to a misfiring Chelsea side. Both teams had chances to win the game but in truth neither really did enough to deserve all 3pts. Scott, Frederick and Marcondes remain sidelined for the visitors this weekend but Adams could make his return following a thigh injury.
Predicted Lineup – Neto (GK), Aarons, Kelly, Zabarnyi, Kerkez, Christie, Cook, Billing, Tavernier, Solanke & Ouattara

Player to Watch: Pascal Gross
One of the unsung heroes of this current Brighton side, Pascal Gross is a pivotal player in the way Brighton like to play and often chips in with goals at vital times in matches, just as he did against Man Utd last time out.
The 32-year-old midfielder recently got called up to the Germany national team and now has 2-caps to his name and while some will wonder how he got into the German squad, those who watch him week in, week out know that this is a just reward for the consistently high level of performances he puts in for the Seagulls.
Now enjoying his seventh full season on the south coast, Gross enjoyed his best goals return in the previous campaign, scoring 10 goals in 44 matches across all competitions and with Brighton now playing European football this season, we expect the German international to eclipse his goals best-ever goals tally in a single season.
Watch out Bournemouth!
