Follow live coverage as Brighton & Hove Albion face Fulham in the Premier League today.

Fulham’s top scorer Aleksandar Mitrovic was absent for his side’s clash with Brighton due to a “minor injury”. The Serbia striker, who has hit 11 of the Cottagers’ 34 Premier League goals this term, was replaced by Harry Wilson.

Evan Ferguson returned to lead Albion’s attack as sixth hosted seventh at the Amex Stadium. The Republic of Ireland striker, who has scored three goals in his last five top-flight outings, replaced Deniz Undav in the only change made by Seagulls boss Roberto De Zerbi.

OVER!!! Lamptey has switched to the right and darts between two before laying the ball off to Buonanotte. The youngster looks to pick his spot, and appears to have done so before curling a left-footed strike over the bar!

SAVED!!! Mac Allister brings down a high ball and cuts onto his right foot before shooting, with his low effort stinging the fingertips of Leno before the goalkeeper collects the ball at the second time of asking!

SAVED!!! Mitoma is put into space and cuts inside from the left to take on Tete. He jinks onto his left foot and shoots towards the near post, but Leno sees it all the way and is able to hold the shot!
