Brighton are set to be without captain Lewis Dunk through suspension for the Premier League match against bottom club Burnley.
Defender Dunk was sent off in the midweek defeat at Manchester United, having initially been cautioned before referee Peter Bankes was advised to check the pitchside monitor and then brandished a red card.

Hide AdRob Sanchez: Albion's No 1 is gaining experience all the time and has now clocked up 50 Premier League appearances.
Joel Veltman: I expect the experienced Dutch international to start on the right side of the defensive three.
Shane Duffy: With Lewis Dunk injured, there could be a return to the heart of the defence for Shane Duffy. He will relish the physical battle with Weghorst.
Adam Webster: The defender will likely line-up on the left side of the three.

Hide AdTariq Lamptey: The flying wing back should have the freedom to bomb forward down the right hand side.
Adam Lallana: Was excellent against Watford but missed out at Man United as Potter manages his minutes. The 33-year-old will likely return against Burnley.
Yves Bissouma: Albion's best midfielder not quite at his best against Man United and will look to hit back in style against Burnley.
Jakub Moder: I think the Poland international will just about get the nod ahead of Alexis Mac Allister.

Neal Maupay: Albion's leading scorer will hope to add to his goal tally against the relegation strugglers.
Alexis Mac Allister: Unlucky to miss out with Moder and Lallana just about getting the nod ahead of him.
