Preview: Brighton & Hove Albion vs. Sheffield Wednesday

Sports Mole looks ahead to the Championship fixture between Brighton & Hove Albion and Sheffield Wednesday.

It would be fair to say that Brighton & Hove Albion have made a stuttering start to life under new manager Oscar Garcia.

Heading into Tuesday's home clash with Sheffield Wednesday, the Seagulls have won half of their four matches at the Amex Stadium and sit 12th in the Championship standings.

Brighton will be boosted by the return of leading goalscorer Leonardo Ulloa and the Argentine is likely to go straight into the starting lineup, with fellow strikers Craig Mackail-Smith and Will Hoskins still injured.

Kemy Agustien and Liam Bridcutt are also doubtful, which could mean that Bruno will keep his role in midfield.

Meanwhile, loanee striker Matty Fryatt has been tipped to make his first start for visiting Wednesday, who go into the fixture placed in the relegation zone. Dave Jones's side have not won any of their four matches on the road so far this season.
