Brighton's injury crisis has deepened, with wingers Kaoru Mitoma and Simon Adingra ruled out until February.
Both players suffered problems in the Seagulls’ 1-1 draw at Crystal Palace last week, Mitoma on his ankle and Adingra a hamstring strain. And manager Roberto De Zerbi is now without up to 10 players as Brighton welcome Tottenham to the Amex tonight.
‘We have 10 injured players, maybe eight but (the other) two players can’t start the game,’ he said. ‘Maybe we are paying for playing three times every week. I would like to play with the complete squad but Tottenham played a lot of games without seven, eight players and I never heard (Ange) Postecoglou cry.
