Brighton & Hove Albion are set to feature in their third pre-season friendly of the summer as they take on Reading this afternoon.
The Seagulls are unbeaten so far after playing out a 0-0 stalemate against Union Saint-Gilloise and thrashing Estoril Praia in Portugal the following week.
Neal Maupay will be looking to add to his pre-season tally after bagging a brace last time out.
The French striker will be hoping to get straight off the mark when the Seagulls face Manchester United in their season opener.
Maupay has failed to reach a double-figure goal tally in the past two seasons since scoring ten in his debut campaign on the south coast.
