Brighton and Hove Albion resume Premier League action at newly promoted Coventry this Sunday.
The Seagulls have so far had a mixed start to the new season with a win against Aston Villa, a loss at Chelsea and a home draw with a physical Leeds United.
Frank Lampard’s Coventry have struggled so far with three defeats from three, having lost to Arsenal, Hull and Manchester City.
Hurzeler wants highest standards
Albion head coach Fabian Hurzeler has challenged his Brighton players to reach their “highest standards” to prevent Coventry claiming a first Premier League point in 25 years.
“I think they played really well against City, they created some chances,”Hurzeler said. “They created chances after transitions, they created chances after corners, after throw-ins. They looked very, very compact. They didn’t give away a lot of chances.
“We know that every Premier League club, no matter how many points they have at the moment, will be a big challenge and we have to reach our highest standards.
“Away at Coventry we have to do this. We expect a tough opponent, a strong opponent, who really grow into this season.”

What has Frank Lampard said?
Frank Lampard believes Brighton could present a tougher test than Manchester City as the Sky Blues seek to open their points account.
Coventry boss Lampard said: “For me this could be as hard, if not harder, than Manchester City for different reasons. That’s not to belittle City, because we know what they are.
“We went to City with very little expectation on us and a clear plan to stop giving them spaces and give them problems when we did.
“We must have the same attitude against Brighton, nailing down what’s needed and doing it throughout.”
