Saturday sees the visit of Leicester City to the Amex and, while the visitors have not yet achieved their expectations this season, they remain dangerous opponents, as could be witnessed by their narrow victory at the King Power Stadium earlier this term.
Coral, Albion's official bookmaking partner, offer the Foxes up as 6/4 favourites, with the Seagulls 9/5 and the Draw 11/5. None of those prices leap out as being amazing value, although the choice of Leicester as favourites when Brighton are at home having recently defeated Newcastle is interesting.
With Brighton being underdogs, although the 9/5 is not tempting, some of the correct score lines are. 17/2 about a 1-0 victory is enticing, as is the 14/1 about a 2-0 margin and a very long looking 25/1 for the Albion to succeed 3/1. All of these should be taken to provide decent long-priced coverage.
Given his current form it is difficult to ignore Will Buckley at odds of 9/1 to net the first goal, while a fit Kazenga LuaLua is also tempting at 12/1 for the last.
All of these tips are blue-and-white flavoured so when setting your stakes do remember that this is a tough game where the "always rich" bookies have declared that they expect a Leicester victory. While I firmly believe that the team can prove them wrong, this is not necessarily a game in which to stake your children's inheritance on.
Away from the Amex, all of my tips come from the Championship. The outsiders of the weekend are Peterborough who travel to Burnley with a 4/1 quote to take all three points, while Ipswich are also overpriced at 2/1 to defeat Coventry. Probably the closest things to bankers are Watford, at 6/5 to overcome Barnsley.
