West Brom need to beat Brighton as time ebbs away for them to save their season. Sam Allardyce appears to have finally shored up their defensive problems, only two goals conceded in West Brom’s past four games, with the introduction of Okay Yokuslu as a holding midfielder but Albion are 11 points from the last safe spot and are not scoring enough goals to win matches. Allardyce will hope Brighton are still bearing the scars of a gutting last-minute defeat to Crystal Palace. The incentive of not dropping further into danger should give Graham Potter ample motivation, though. Potter can flex his superior tactical knowledge and deliver a welcome win. Graham Searles
