Stoke City v Brighton & Hove Albion: Lewis Dunk set to make 400th Seagulls appearance

Brighton captain Lewis Dunk is expected to make his 400th appearance for the Seagulls in Tuesday's FA Cup fifth-round tie at Championship side Stoke.

Apart from a brief loan spell at Bristol City in 2013, Dunk has spent his entire career at his hometown club.

The 31-year-old centre-back also won one cap for England in 2018.

"For me it's difficult to understand how he has never played for a big team in the Premier League," said Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi.

"If you ask me what I think about Dunk, I think he's one of the best centre-backs in the Premier League.
