Albion expecting season-high crowd for visit of Fulham

The Albion look set to have a season-high attendance next time out at the Amex.

Brighton and Hove Albion's next home game is set for the highest attendance at the Amex so far this season.

The Seagulls have already shifted more than 27,000 tickets for the visit of Fulham on Saturday, November 29 - with a sizeable away contingent expected for the 3pm kick-off.

Tickets are still selling well and the Albion anticipate the game will attract the club's highest home attendance since last season's Play-Off semi-final home leg with Derby County.

Supporters who have not yet bought their tickets for the Fulham match still have time to secure their spot at the Amex but the Seagulls are urging fans not to wait until the last minute because there is a chance it could be the first sell-out of the season.

That would mean an attendance topping 30,000 and Jenny Gower, head of ticketing and supporter services, said: 'Tickets for the Fulham fixture have been selling rapidly and we are hopeful of our first sell out of the season. 'We strongly advise anyone wishing to attend the game that they purchase their ticket as soon as possible to avoid disappointment.'

There are also tickets still available for the Albion's two December home games. Millwall make the relatively short trip south on Friday, December 12 for a 7.45pm kick-off, while Reading are the visitors for the Amex's first ever Boxing Day clash.

Those are not the only games taking place at the Amex during December however. Brighton and Hove Albion Under-21 team entertain their Arsenal counterparts at the stadium on Monday, December 1.

Season ticket holders can attend the game, which starts at 7pm, for free if they produce their smart card at the turnstile and non-season ticket holders can buy tickets for £5 for adults and £2 concessions.

The Albion's younger fans are being encouraged to attend the club's hugely-popular annual Young Seagulls Christmas Party, which takes place on Sunday, December 21.

There are a limited number of tickets available and they are expected to sell-out quickly, having gone on sale yesterday (Thursday).

The event is free for Young Seagulls Plus members of under-16 season ticket holders and £5 for Free Young Seagulls members. Young Seagulls members can purchase a maximum of one ticket each, which allows entry to one adult and one junior.
