Balogun set for second game of the season in Brighton and Hove Albion's FA Cup outing

Brighton and Hove Albion manager Graham Potter has confirmed Leon Balogun's availability for their FA Cup clash against Championship club Sheffield Wednesday.

The 31-year-old has found playing time difficult at the Amex Stadium this season, playing just one game so far across all competitions this term.

Balogun's only appearance came in a League Cup fixture against Bristol Rovers in August and he is yet to feature in a Premier League game this season.

Ahead of Brighton's FA Cup game on Saturday, Graham declared the Super Eagles centre-back fit for action after battling an illness that kept him out of action during the busy festive period.
