Brighton will be feeling good after a much-needed win against Southampton but they must refocus as they face a relegation rival in Newcastle. Recent history, the form book and fitness point to Brighton clinching another crucial victory. Graham Potter’s side are unbeaten in seven matches against Newcastle since promotion, conceding one goal in three wins and four draws. Steve Bruce’s side have been insipid without their three best attackers but Miguel Almirón may be available to return. They need a spark as Fulham continue to creep closer. Graham Searles
