In what will be the final home match of the Premier League season for Brighton, Graham Potter will hope to finish off what has been a successful debut campaign.

The first of the final two games sees Newcastle United visit the Amex, with Steve Bruce positioning the Magpies for a comfortable mid-table finish.

He will be determined to snap a three-game losing streak here in order to avoid any unwanted negativity running into next season, with the impending takeover of the club still proving to be a distraction.

While Potter’s revolution on the south coast is far from being complete, there are signs of progress as the club strives to bed in a new, expansive style of football.
