Brighton host Southampton in the English Premier League at the Amex Stadium on Monday. Southampton have enjoyed a fine start to the league season while Brighton have performed well, but don't have the points to show for it.

Brighton Form

Brighton started this season with four defeats in their first seven matches despite some very strong performances. That included a 3-2 home loss to Man Utd after hitting the woodwork five times.

In recent weeks, Graham Potter's charges drew 0-0 at home against Burnley for their first clean sheet in six matches. Brighton then won 2-1 at Aston Villa as Danny Welbeck and Solly March found the back of the net.

In their last match, Brighton scored a last minute penalty through Pascal Gross to take an impressive 1-1 draw at home against champions, Liverpool.

Brighton Team News

Brighton have several players absent or doubtful for this match. Tariq Lamptey is back from suspension at right-back but Adam Lallana will be absent in midfield. Davy Propper is also doubt in the engine room.

In attack, Neil Maupay will miss out with a thigh injury whilst Alexis Mac Allister has COVID-19.

Southampton Form

Ralph Hasenhuttl’s team have been in fine form with five wins and two draws in their last eight matches in the Premier League.

After three straight wins against Everton, Aston Villa and Newcastle they drew 1-1 at Wolves. Theo Walcott opened the scoring but the Saints could not hold on for the win.

Southampton's last match saw another lead surrendered as they led 2-0 at home against Manchester United after 60 minutes. Jan Bednarek and James Ward-Prowse scored the goals. Southampton conceded three goals in the final 30 minutes to lose 3-2.
