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

Brighton handed a full debut to Pervis Estupinan for the clash with fellow unbeaten side Leeds.

Left-back Estupinan replaced Adam Lallana in the only change to the Seagulls team which began last weekend’s 2-0 win at West Ham.

Leeds boss Jesse Marsch named an unchanged starting XI after thumping Chelsea 3-0.

CHANCE! Huge opportunity for Brighton! March releases Gross through on goal and March races clear and only has Meslier to beat in goal. However, the keeper makes himself as big as possible and pulls off an excellent save to deny him. That should have gone in.

Brighton will be hoping that all these missed opportunities don't come back to haunt them, which they have done on a few previous occasions. Leeds still not offering much in way of a chance.

CHANCE! Estupinan gets in behind the Leeds defence down the left wing and he drills a low cross into the six-yard box for Gross, who meets it, but he can't fire the shot on target. Good move by the home side.

Leeds need to improve after the break if they are to score today, as they are yet to test Sanchez and look vulnerable at the back themselves. More of the same from Brighton should be enough to get them the win.

It’s goalless at the break between Brighton and Leeds, but the home side should be ahead after a dominating first half performance. They kept the ball well in the Leeds half and have also been helped by a lot of sloppy passes from the visitors, who haven’t been at their best so far. March has tested Meslier from distance on a couple of occasions, however, the best opportunity fell to Webster, but the defender couldn’t turn his header on target and it flew just inches past the post.
