Brighton continue their preparations for the new campaign at their Spanish training camp.
The Seagulls enjoyed a 3-1 victory against Championship side Stoke City on Wednesday and also had a 6-1 win against League One outfit Wycombe Wanderers just prior to their trip to the Costa Del Sol.
Brighton will also play Spanish second tier team Las Palmas in a behind closed doors friendly and when they return, they play Southampton away and their final tune-up is against Bundesliga club Wolfsburg at the Amex Stadium.
The first Premier League match is a week later against Fulham on August 16 at the Amex Stadium.
The Seagulls have so far spent around £100m on new arrivals this summer but have lost the likes of Joao Pedro to Chelsea and Simon Adingra to Sunderland. Brighton also have a few injury concerns as the likes of Bart Verbruggen, Ferdi Kadioglu and Solly March remain just behind the main group in terms of full fitness.
Here's Brighton's best XI, as it stands today...
5. Jack Hinshelwood - LB
The academy graduate excelled for England under-21s in the left back position and played there for Brighton at times last season. He started the pre-season win against Stoke and could get the nod for the first Premier League match against Fulham as £17m new arrival Maxim De Cuyper gets up to speed. Pervis Estupinan is expected to move on with AC Milan the most likely destination. Photo: BHAFC
6. Carlos Baleba - CM
Not quite at his best against Stoke City as he builds up his pre-season form and fitness but the Cameroon international is almost a certain starter in the Premier League when fit Photo: BHAFC
7. Yasin Ayari - CM
Another vital position where there are numerous options. I have gone for Ayari here but it's so close with the likes of Wieffer, Milner, Hinshelwood, Gomez, O'Riley and Kadioglu all more than capable Photo: BHAFC
8. YanKuba Minteh - RW
The Gambian flyer will likely be Hurzeler's main option down the right flank but the likes of Brajan Gruda, Solly March (when fit) and Harry Howell will be pushing hard. Howell impressed in the first half against Stoke last Wednesday Photo: BHAFC
