Brighton are winless in their last 9 Premier League matches (Getty Images).

Leeds Form

Leeds are currently 12th in the Premier League table and Marcelo Bielsa will be content with their return of three wins in their last five league fixtures.

Home wins over Newcastle and Burnley came either side of a 6-2 drubbing at the hands of Manchester United. Leeds then got over that result with a 5-0 thrashing of West Brom before a 3-0 defeat away to Tottenham.

Last time out, a much changed Leeds side were shocked in the FA Cup by Crawley Town, losing 3-0 away from home as they were dumped out at the third round.

Leeds Team News

Leeds will be without midfielder Kalvin Phillips due to suspension. Tyler Roberts, Diego Llorente, Robin Koch, Adam Forshaw and Gaetano Berardi are all injured.

Brighton Form

Brighton are just two points ahead of 18th-placed Fulham in the table, with Scott Parker’s team also having two games in hand on the Seagulls.

Graham Potter’s team are winless in their last nine matches in the Premier League, taking just a point from their last three. Brighton lost 1-0 at home to Arsenal and drew 3-3 with Wolves, before needing penalties to defeat Newport County in the FA Cup.

In their last match, Brighton were beaten 1-0 away to Manchester City as Phil Foden scored the game’s only goal.
