Albion head coach Roberto De Zerbi has injury issues to contend with as he prepares his men for Gennaro Gattuso’s Marseille team.
Brighton arrive to the south of France having suffered a painful 6-1 defeat at Aston Villa and will look to hit back in style against Marseille, who are 12th in Ligue 1.
De Zerbi has been managing his squad carefully this season as he attempts to juggle the demands of the Premier League and their first ever foray into continental competition. The Italian has rotated his squad in an attempt to keep his key men fresh but fitness question marks remain on a number of key players.
Here’s a run down on who is struggling for Brighton and Marseille and who has been ruled out of the Europa League Group B showdown...
