Dunk facing late fitness test for Brighton

Brighton will check on Lewis Dunk ahead of the clash with Bournemouth.

Seagulls captain Dunk missed the 2-1 loss at Tottenham with a virus – a game where Neal Maupay and Davy Propper were left on the bench.

Solly March and Jose Izquierdo will continue to miss out as boss Graham Potter promises changes.

Bournemouth will welcome back Diego Rico from suspension at the Amex Stadium.

Spanish left-back Rico was absent for the 1-1 draw with Arsenal after collecting his fifth booking of the season, with academy graduate Jack Simpson deputising.

Cherries captain Simon Francis is a doubt after missing the Gunners game with a bruised knee, while a host of first-team players, including Nathan Ake, Adam Smith and Arnaut Danjuma, remain sidelined.

Brighton provisional squad: Ryan, Dunk, Webster, Burn, Stephens, Bissouma, Mooy, Propper, Alzate, Trossard, Gross, Maupay, Button, Duffy, Montoya, Bernardo, Jahanbakhsh, Murray, Connolly.

Bournemouth provisional squad: Ramsdale, Stacey, S. Cook, Mepham, Rico, Lerma, L. Cook, Gosling, Fraser, King, C. Wilson, Boruc, Simpson, Surman, Stanislas, H. Wilson, Billing, Solanke.

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
