Nothing like a chilly Friday night tussle with Burnley to bruise an inflated ego. And in the end, nothing Neal Maupay could do to right the wrongs of recent days.
Graham Potter recalled his star striker for this clash, having left him out of their defeat by Tottenham over concerns about his attitude and a reported dressing room bust-up.
Not his finest hour, Potter insisted. This wasn’t much better for anyone in Brighton blue – this draw means their winless streak on home soil stretches to eight games.

They haven’t taken three points here since June, when Maupay scored a late winner against Arsenal and had handbags with Matteo Guendouzi.
