Brighton Availability

Brighton face several concerns.

  • D. Gomez (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • S. Tzimas (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • A. Webster (Knee Injury) is sidelined.

There are also multiple doubts:

  • S. March (Muscle Injury) is doubtful.
  • J. Milner (Injury) is doubtful.
  • M. Wieffer (Injury) is doubtful.

Top scorer D. Welbeck, with 13 league goals and 1 assist, is available and expected to lead the attack.

Wolves Availability

Wolves are also depleted.

  • L. Chiwome (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • E. Gonzalez (Knee Injury) is sidelined.
  • S. Johnstone (Knock) is sidelined.

Two defensive options are uncertain:

  • L. Krejci (Neck Injury) is doubtful.
  • J. Sa (Ankle Injury) is doubtful.

Impact Summary

Brighton’s absences are concentrated in defense and wide areas, but their main attacking output, led by D. Welbeck’s 13 goals, remains intact. Wolves, already struggling with only 25 goals scored and 63 conceded in 35 matches, risk further instability at the back if J. Sa and L. Krejci do not feature, increasing the pressure on an attack that has not consistently delivered.
