Third-placed Leicester City will seek to increase their three-point lead over Chelsea after conceding a late equaliser against Watford on Saturday.

Brighton & Hove Albion, who beat Arsenal with a stoppage-time winner at the weekend, are seeking to now overcome another contender for a European spot and move eight points clear of the relegation zone.

Team news

Dennis Praet is available for the Foxes after missing the 1-1 draw with Watford due to a calf strain. Ricardo Pereira (knee) remains out.

Brighton are only missing Jose Izquierdo (knee).
