Brighton host struggling Bolton

Brighton and Hove Albion host struggling Bolton Wanderers on Saturday looking for their fourth successive league win.

Prior to the 1-0 victory over Blackburn last month, the Seagulls had lost five out of six fixtures since their unbeaten start to the season was ended by top-of-the-table Middlesbrough, in December.

However following the victory at Ewood Park, Chris Hughton's men have seen off Huddersfield and Brentford in an attempt to reinvigorate their promotion challenge.

The Seagulls are currently fourth in the table after their 3-0 win over Brentford, a victory which was also the first time Hughton's side have won by more than a one-goal margin this season.

Botlon meanwhile are one place of the foot of the Championship, level on points with Charlton, and four points adrift of safety.

The Trotters however are unbeaten in their last three, after an injury-time winner last time out against Rotherham.

Neil Lennon's side avoided a fourth straight defeat when these two sides met at the Macron Stadium in the reverse fixture; a late Gary Madine strike rescuing a 2-2 draw against the former league leaders.

Saturday's clash will be the 20th meeting between the two sides, with Brighton winning three of the last five.

Kick Off: 15:00, Amex Stadium.
