Brighton & Hove Albion will host Leeds United at the AMEX Stadium on Saturday afternoon in the fourth gameweek of the 2022-23 Premier League campaign.
The Seagulls have begun the season in superb fashion, picking up a 2-1 win over Manchester United on the opening day, thanks to a Pascal Gross brace. They then played out a goalless draw against Newcastle United before beating West Ham United 2-0 away, with Alexis Mac Alister and Leandro Trossard getting on the scoresheet.
Brighton have picked up seven points from a maximum of nine and sit fifth in the league standings. They will now look to continue their strong start to the season against Leeds.
Leeds have also had a brilliant start to their league campaign, beating Wolverhampton Wanderers 2-1 in their season opener. They then played out a 2-2 draw against Southampton before picking up an impressive 3-0 victory over Chelsea at Elland Road last weekend.
The visitors sit a place above their weekend opponents in the league table but are level on points.
