Steven Alzate and Josh Kerr scored to help Brighton & Hove Albion maintain their unbeaten start to the Premier League 2 Division 2 season with a 4-2 win over Fulham at the Checkatrade.com Stadium. 

Fulham had taken the lead when George Williams scored a penalty, but the hosts were level when Sean Kavanagh turned a cross into his own net.

Daniel Mandroiu then fired the Seagulls in front after 41 minutes with a long-range strike, before Kerr's own goal levelled proceedings.

It was 3-2 shortly after half-time, when Alzate reacted quickest to get on the end of a low George Cox cross.

With 20 minutes remaining, Kerr added a fourth from close range as Brighton moved up to fourth in the table. 

Brighton are next in PL2 action at home to Reading on Friday 25 August and Fulham host Aston Villa the following day.
