Brighton and Hove Albion host the Premier League’s bottom club Southampton on Friday night, with the Seagulls having a mighty motivation for victory knowing three points will put them second in the table ahead of the weekend.
Fabian Hurzeler’s side have been largely excellent this term and have clocked up four wins in their last six in the top flight, moving them to fifth in the congested upper echelons of the table, just a point behind Manchester City in second. With none of the teams above them in action until at least Saturday evening, there’s a real chance for them to display just how far they’ve come.
