Here is how we predict Leeds United and Brighton & Hove Albion will line up this week:

To be played on Friday 9th December 2016 at 19:45. Venue: Amex Stadium, Falmer

Odds: Brighton 4/5, Draw 12/5, Leeds 10/3

Leeds United take on Brighton & Hove Albion on Friday evening in their latest Championship clash.

The Whites are flying high in the second tier after a superb run of form. However the Seagulls are pushing for automatic promotion and will be Leeds’ toughest opponents of the season to date.

If Garry Monk’s side overcome Brighton in their own backyard it will prove categorically that Leeds mean business this season, yet even a point will be another big step in the right direction.

Leeds defeated Aston Villa 2-0 last time out while Brighton drew 0-0 with Cardiff City after going down to 10 men with Gaeten Bong sent off in the final throes of the encounter.

If Brighton win they will go top of the table, at least temporarily, while a Leeds victory would take them third in the table, just four points behind the Seagulls as they head into the busy festive period.

Here is how we expect the two sides to line up later this week:
