Brighton continue to have a number of injury concerns ahead of their festive fixture against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium.
The Seagulls, who are 10th in the table, were missing key players as they played out a drab 0-0 draw against Sunderland at the Amex Stadium last weekend. Head coach Fabian Hurzeler also had the likes of Lewis Dunk and Diego Gomez missing through suspension, while midfielder Carlos Baleba is away on AFCON duty.
A trip to league-leaders Arsenal on December 27 is not the easiest Christmas present but Hurzeler will no doubt be demanding an improved performance from the laboured stalemate at the Amex Stadium.
Here's the current injury and absentee list with expected dates.
