ALBION LINEUP: Verbruggen, Hadjam, Boscagli, Svoboda, Costinha, O'Riley, Yalcouye, Hinshelwood, Gross, Osman, Georginio

Albion return to Conference League football with a spring in their step after the historic victory over Palace last weekend. Brighton have rotated their side this afternoon, making eight changes in the process.

Bart Verbruggen will line up between the sticks, with Jaouen Hadjam at left back. Costinha will take the right back spot alongside centre backs Olivier Boscagli and Michel Svoboda. Yalcouye, Gross and Hinshelwood are expected to make up the three in midfield, with Ibrahim Osman and Matt O'Riley out wide. Georginio Rutter will lead the line for the Seagulls.

Albion's midfield gives us the idea they'll be on the front foot a lot this evening, with three attack minded players in the central positions. Costinha and Hadjam have proven to be good going forward too, so the Albion should be able to effectively attack the wide areas.
