Tommy Watson starts, Carlos Baleba decision - Brighton's starting XI to face Barnsley predicted

Carabao Cup: Barnsley vs Brighton at Oakwell Stadium - Tuesday, 7.45pm

Brighton and Hove Albion resume League Cup action as they face Barnsley in the third round at Oakwell Stadium.

Head coach Fabian Hurzeler will likely make plenty of changes to the team that drew 2-2 against Tottenham at the Amex Stadium last Saturday.

The game could give fringe players the chance to get minutes, and those returning to full fitness, such as Mats Wieffer and Maxim De Cuyper, could also start.

A decision will need to be made on out-of-sorts midfielder Carlos Baleba, while former Sunderland man Tommy Watson could also be line for his full debut.

Here's how the Seagulls could line-up for this one at the Oakwell Stadium...
