Brighton are pushing for Europe, sitting seventh after seven wins in their last 10. Kaoru Mitoma has a hamstring injury that rules him out of the final two matches. Stefanos Tzimas is out for the season with an ACL injury, and Adam Webster, sidelined all campaign with an ACL, is back on the grass but a return in the final two games is unlikely.
