Knockaert returns from suspension for Brighton

Relegation-threatened Brighton have Anthony Knockaert available for Saturday’s Premier League clash with Newcastle.

French winger Knockaert has completed a three-match suspension following his sending off against Bournemouth on April 13.

Holland midfielder Davy Propper remains sidelined with a hamstring problem.

Newcastle will be without skipper Jamaal Lascelles after he was laid low by illness.

The central defender has been unable to train this week because of a stomach bug and joins striker Miguel Almiron on the sidelines after his season was ended by a hamstring injury.

Both centre-half Florian Lejeune and midfielder Sean Longstaff continue their respective recoveries from knee ligament damage.
