After the highs of Thursday’s excellent and merited win at the Emirates Brighton return home and face a Wolves side who took their unbeaten league run to 10 matches with Wednesday’s 2-0 defeat of West Ham and are starting to look like the team who so impressed everybody last season. Nuno Espírito Santo’s side have now played 28 games in all competitions though, which is 11 more than Brighton, and their manager gave them a rare day off on Thursday – he will be hoping the extra day’s rest pays dividends for his players on Sunday as they aim to consolidate fifth place in the table.
