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.

We will bring you all the action and updates from today's game in the live blog below:

Brighton & Hove Albion vs Leeds United

Both teams come into the game in fine form and on the back of two excelent wins last weekend in the league, along with EFL Cup victories in midweek as well. So it could be an interesting game today.

Brighton look dangerous at set pieces so far, with Leeds not looking particularly comfortable, as shown by the Webster chance a few minutes ago.

Harrison is allowed far too much time and space to cut inside from the left wing and get into the penalty area, before trying to fire a shot towards goal. However, Brighton get players back and make the block.

CHANCE! Brighton whip a free-kick in from the right wing and Webster is completely unmarked at the near post and he powers a header towards goal, but it flies just wide of the post! So close to the opening goal.

Brighton have won eight of their last 11 league games against Leeds (D2 L1), though both Premier League meetings between the sides last season ended level.

It's fairly even so far, with neither side able to create a great opportunity in front of goal. However, Leeds have been quite sloppy in possession at times, giving the ball away in midfield.

Good defending from Adams as Trossard looked to fire a shot at goal following a mistake at the back by Leeds, which allowed Brighton the opportunity.
