' CARDIFF CITY '


Scott Young and Gabbidon took their squad to Sussex yesterday having added fit-again Matthew Connolly to the 18-man group who were on duty against Wednesday.

Connolly has recovered from a minor injury and is available, while Young and Gabbidon must decide whether to stick with 4-4-2 or add an extra body in midfield for an away match.

Tom Adeyemi is likely to be called up alongside Peter Whittingham and Aron Gunnarsson if they go for 4-5-1.

City have only one major injury problem going into matches at Brighton and Blackpool with Ben Turner still ruled out after an ankle operation. He is around a month away from being ready to play ag


Coaches Danny Gabbidon and Scott Young will take charge of Cardiff again.
They could give a full debut to on-loan midfielder Ravel Morrison after impressing as a substitute against Sheffield Wednesday.


' BRIGHTON '

Striker Sam Baldock is doubtful with a calf injury, while midfielder Kemy Agustien misses out with a troublesome ankle injury.
Full-back Inigo Calderon is suspended and midfielders Solly March (back) and Dale Stephens (ankle) remain sidelined.

Team news

Fabio made a welcome return on Saturday and put in a brilliant performance before coming up near the end. Hopefully he will be fit again for Tuesday.
Craig Noone played 60 minutes before coming off for the impressive Ravel Morrison who has signed on loan until January.
It is unclear whether Gabbs & Young will still be in charge on Tuesday, but it's unlikely there will be mass changes to the team regardless of who is in charge.

The Opposition
Brighton played out a second 0-0 draw in a row on Saturday against Nottingham Forest but will take more from the score than the hosts, who failed to find their fluent best on a frustrating afternoon.

Buoyed by their point at Forest, Brighton have gone three league games without scoring a goal & find themselves 5 league matches without a win.

Form - Last 5 Games
Cardiff have won 1, drawn 1 and lost 3.

The Ground



Club: Brighton & Hove Albion FC
Opening: 2011
Capacity: 30,750 seats

The Amex, officially called the American Express Community Stadium and also referred to as Falmer Stadium, officially opened on the 30th of July 2011 with a friendly match between Brighton and Tottenham Hotspur (2-3).

Brighton had been planning the construction of a new stadium from as early as 1995 after former chairman Bill Archer had sold their Goldstone Ground to property developers.

When Brighton became homeless they first ground-shared with Gillingham for two seasons, and then moved to the Withdean Stadium, an athletics stadium in Brighton that, though it was upgraded, lacked the modern facilities for League football.

It's Tuesday night not Saturday mate

I am going for a 2-2 draw

0-1 to the Bloobirds(Jones,he is due one)

If Gus Poyet was still there i would say a defeat and with their new manager they are struggling to score goals so i am going for a sneaky 1-0 to us.

3-1 city!!! (jones, morrison, guerra)

1-0 to us hopefully. If we play like we did yesterday, who knows, could be more!

An away win would be great, and take us up with 15 points (currently joint 8th ). If we win, we're not far from being back in the running (if results go our way!)

It's gonna happen.....

3-1 to City!!!!

Morrison x2
Macheda

Put your money on it!

1-2

0-0

I think it might be time for the team to show their actual potential. I´m going for a shocking 0-3 win here!

If we play like we did in the second half against Wednesday... 3-1 to city
If we play like we did against boro / Bournemouth... 0-4 to Brighton

I think we can beat Brighton,1-0 to the City

I think so, and I think that's what made the difference against the Owls...

Hope I'm right and all the folks who were slagging him off and throwing their toys out of the pram because he's "not a big enough name" can eat their words.

Going for a 2-1 away win.hoping for 2 wins this week.

I've on fire lately.. Esp with accumulators! I can only see a brighton 2-1.

The Albion take on Cardiff City at the Amex tomorrow night (30th September )and will be seeking their first league goal in four championship matches.

Although Cardiff are likely to be managed by caretakers , Scott Young and Danny Gabbidon on Tuesday , it is expected former Albion boss Russell Slade, will be at the Amex in some guise.

Slade who saved Albion from almost certain relegation to league 2 , in 2009 , has left Leyton Orient and appears to be caught in legal wrangle, between his former and potential employer .

Albion are expected to be without Sam Baldcock against the Bluebirds , although Paddy McCourt, is expected to make his full league debut for the club.

I'm going 2:1 City.....

Brighton & Hove Albion host Cardiff City this Tuesday at the Amex in the 62nd meeting between the two sides.

In the previous 61 encounters the Seagulls have gained a slight edge in the overall head-to-head record, with 22 victories to Cardiff’s 21, with the teams inseparable in 18 draws.

The most recent meeting at the Amex resulted in a goalless draw in what would prove to be a point towards both sides’ promotion hunt. It was the Bluebirds though that reached the Premier League, finsihing top of the Championship, while Albion fell agonisingly short at the play-off semi-final stage.

Cardiff’s last victory on the south-coast came in October 2006 thanks to Alan Lee’s 74th minute goal, but in recent times it is the Seagulls who have enjoyed the better of the fixture and are unbeaten in the last four meetings.
