Brighton & Hove Albion and Nottingham Forest will look to bounce back from this weekend’s defeats when they meet at the Amex Stadium on Tuesday.
The Seagulls slipped to a 2-0 defeat to Brentford over the weekend through a brace by Ivan Toney.
Forest are on a seven-game winless run after they suffered a narrow 1-0 defeat to Wolves after Rúben Neves scored a 56th-minute winner.
The defeat leaves Brighton in seventh place on the table with 14 points, while Forest is rooted to the bottom with just five points after 10 matches.
When the two teams square off at the Amex Stadium this will be the first meeting in the Premier League, having previously only ever met in the English Championship.
Roberto De Zerbi is expected to be without the services of Karou Mitoma and Jakub Moder, who are sidelined due to their respective injuries.
Steve Cooper will remain without Moussa Niakhate, Jack Colback, and Omar Richards as they continue to be out due to their injuries.
Brighton defender Lewis Dunk has a record of four yellow cards n his last nine appearances against Forest but has a good record against them with four wins, three draws and only two losses.
Forest’s Steve Cook will look to better his record against Brighton, having only won two out of his six previous meetings against the Seagulls, with two wins, draws and defeats.
