Brighton & Hove Albion will welcome Brentford to the Amex Stadium for a Premier League clash on Saturday afternoon.
The hosts will be looking to return to winning ways after playing out a 0-0 draw with rivals Crystal Palace before the international break.
That stalemate means that Fabian Hurzeler’s side will start the weekend in 11th position in the Premier League table, though they are just three points behind fourth-placed Sunderland.
However, Brighton can expect a stern test when they come up against a Brentford side that have been ticking along nicely of late.
Keith Andrews’ team have won three of their last four Premier League matches, the most recent of which was a 3-1 success against Newcastle.
That latest victory means the Bees will head to the south coast level on points with their hosts in the current top-flight standings.
How the bookies view it: Seagulls to taste success
Brighton – who have won each of their last two Premier League home games – come into this clash as odds-on 20/23 favourites with BOYLE Sport.
Brentford have lost four of their five top-flight road games this season, and that is reflected in the pre-match odds, with an away win trading at 14/5 on BOYLE Sports while an all square affair at the Amex pays 5/2 with the same firm.
Head to head: Another stalemate in store?
The points have been shared in three of the last five Premier League meetings between the pair, including each of the last two at this venue. Last season’s corresponding fixture ended 0-0 and a repeat here has been priced up at 11/1 on BOYLE Sports.
Players to watch: Hone in on Henderson
Having committed a minimum of one foul in seven of his 11 Premier League appearances this season, Jordan Henderson looks overpriced to overstep the mark once or more during this contest at 8/11 on bet365.
With an impressive return of six goals in his last six Premier League outings, Danny Welbeck looks well worthy of support for either a goal or an assist here at 5/4 with Paddy Power.
Predicted line-ups
Brighton again look set to be without injured quartet Adam Webster, Jack Hinshelwood, James Milner and Solly March while Brajan Gruda and Kaoru Mitoma are considered doubtful.
As for Brentford, Antoni Milambo and Josh Dasilva remain sidelined, however Kristoffer Ajer is back in contention after missing out against Newcastle with a back injury.
Brighton: Verbruggen; Wieffer, Van Hecke, Dunk, Kadioglu; Baleba, Ayari; Minteh, Rutter, Gomez; Welbeck
Brentford: Kelleher; Kayode, Collins, Van den Berg, Hickey; Henderson, Yarmolyuk; Ouattara, Damsgaard, Schade; Thiago
Anything else catch the eye?
Backing both teams to score alongside each team to receive a card will bring about an attractive 10/11 Bet Builder on bet365.
This combination would have been a profitable one in six of Brighton's last nine Premier League matches.
What’s more, this Bet Builder would have also paid out in six of Brentford’s previous nine top-flight fixtures.
