Brighton vs Sheffield United Lineups and Last Match
Brighton
The Seagulls flew down to Goodison Park last weekend for what proved to be a close and competitive ninety minutes. Everton took the lead early on via full-back Mykolenko and while Brighton dominated the possession, the visitors failed to create any meaningful opportunities of their own. However, six minutes from the end, Mitoma's cross took a huge deflection off Ashley Young and looped over Pickford and into the back of the Everton net, securing Brighton a share of the spoils. The hosts could be without Espinola, Lamptey, Estupinan, Milner, Dunk, Welbeck and March for the game against struggling Sheff Utd.
Predicted Lineup – Verbruggen (GK), Veltman, Julio, van Hecke, Baleba, Lallana, Groß, Gilmour, Mitoma, Ferguson & Adingra
Sheff Utd
The Sheffield United fans finally had something to shout about last time out at home to Wolves as their beloved club claimed their first win of the new season, the last club in all of Engliand's professional leagues to do so. A tight and tense game looked like it might be going to end in a goalless draw until Archer fired home a wonderful goal in the seventy-second minute, however, Wolves equalised in the eighty-ninth minute and the draw appeared to be the most likely outcome. The Blades kept on pushing in the heavy rain and deep into stoppage time they were awarded a dubious penalty which Norwood rocketed home to send the Sheff Utd faithful into hysterics. Basham, Lowe, Ahmedhodzic, McBurnie, Brewster, Norrington-davies, Egan, Davis and Jebbison could all miss the trip to Brighton due to injury.
Predicted Lineup – Foderingham (GK), Baldock, Robinson, Trusty, Bogle, Thomas, Norwood, Hamer, Souza, McAtee & Archer

Player to Watch: Kaoru Mitoma
Brighton's Japanese international was their most dangerous player away at Everton last weekend and it was his deflected cross that earned the Seagulls a point in that game.
The 26-year-old really impressed in his debut Premier League campaign with seven goals and it doesn't appear to have been a fluke as the winger has netted three times in ten starts this season, picking up where he left off.
Mitoma is so dangerous cutting in from the left-hand side and delivering accurate crosses and shots toward the opposition's goal but he is equally as dangerous when the play is on the other side of the pitch and he is able to drift into the penalty area and adopt dangerous positions ready to get on the end of any crosses.
