Glenn Murray will be hoping his good home form will end the striker's disappointing record against Leicester City when the Foxes visit his Brighton & Hove Albion team on Saturday.

The 35-year-old forward has faced Leicester seven times and has yet to get on the scoresheet.

But Murray has scored five of six Premier League goals at the Amex Stadium this season, including successive 1-0 wins.

These goals have won Brighton half of their 14 points this season.

Contract extension

The striker has signed a new deal with the Seagulls and his manager, Chris Hughton, was happy the striker agreed to extend his stay.

"Glenn signed a new deal recently - it's well deserved," Hughton said in his pre-match press conference.

"He's had two spells here - during my time here he's been excellent. He looks after himself very well."
