Brighton & Hove Albion

Newcastle came from behind to stun Brighton with two late goals to reclaim top spot in the Championship.
The Seagulls were leading through Glenn Murray's controversial penalty until a fluked effort from Mo Diame nine minutes from time hauled Newcastle level.
Then with a minute to go, substitute Ayoze Perez secured a 2-1 victory and lifted the Magpies back above Brighton at the summit.
Both these teams are looking over their shoulders with third-placed Huddersfield building up a head of steam as they try to muscle in on the automatic promotion spots, and it is Newcastle who will be breathing easier after moving eight points clear of the Terriers.
