Brighton must recover from its midweek loss to Nottingham Forest to play Wolves and maintain its Europa League hopes.

For Forest, almost everything that could have gone wrong during the first half of their match against Brighton on a weekday did. Moussa Niakhate’s injury dampened the City Ground faithful’s spirits, Jason Steele saving Brennan Johnson’s penalty and Facundo Buonanotte’s tap-in.

However, Forest turned the tide of the match with a fine Danilo goal just before halftime, and after a Lewis Dunk handball in extra time, Morgan Gibbs-White scored from 12 yards to make up for Johnson’s inability to do so.

In 2023, Molineux has not been a pleasant hunting ground for many visiting teams. Roy Hodgson’s Eagles became the most recent team to experience the full sting of Wolves, losing overwhelmingly due to an early and late goal.

After Lopetegui’s team stopped a few fruitless attacks from Palace, Ruben Neves completed the perfect evening with his sixth goal of the year from the penalty spot after Sam Johnstone fouled Pedro Neto in the third minute.

The injured players include Jakub Moder (ACL), Tariq Lamptey (knee), Jeremy Sarmiento (foot), Adam Lallana (hamstring), and Evan Ferguson (ankle). Recent wasteful box shots by Brighton indicate they are particularly missing Ferguson’s presence.

However, the wolves are in better shape than they have been in a while, giving Julen Lopetegui options to change things. Despite this, it is unlikely that they will make many changes following the 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace.
