Southampton v Brighton preview

Team news for Tuesday night's League One clash between Southampton and Brighton at St Mary's Stadium.

Southampton manager Nigel Adkins hopes to name an unchanged starting line-up for the visit of leaders Brighton. Saints were in fine form as they thrashed Peterborough 4-1 on Saturday and suffered no fresh injuries. Ryan Dickson looks set to keep his place at left-back after being preferred to Dan Harding, who was left out of the squad completely after last weekend's defeat at Carlisle. Danny Butterfield returned to the bench on Saturday after a calf injury and will be among the substitutes again with Frazer Richardson now holding down the right-back slot. Young winger Oscar Gobern is fit after a long-term hip injury so Adkins has a full-strength squad at his disposal as Saints look for a seventh straight home win. Brighton captain Gordon Greer has been passed fit for the trip to Southampton. The defender had to be substituted during Saturday's 2-2 draw against Bristol Rovers through illness but he will make the trip along the south coast. The Seagulls will be without Greer's fellow centre-half Tommy Elphick, who is suspended after picking up his fifth booking of the season at the weekend. Liam Bridcutt serves the final game of his three-match ban, Matt Sparrow is still missing with a groin injury and Alan Navarro continues his recovery from cruciate ligament damage. Assistant manager Mauricio Taricco could be added to the bench after serving a one-match ban against Rovers following his red card in the FA Cup replay at Woking.
