Brighton vs Chelsea - Lallana, Veltman and White set for Brighton Premier League debuts

Adam Lallana, Joel Veltman and Ben White could make Premier League debuts for Brighton during Monday evening’s clash with Chelsea.

England midfielder Lallana and Holland defender Veltman were signed from Liverpool and Ajax respectively during the summer, while centre-back White is back on the south coast following a successful loan spell with Leeds.

Goalkeeper Christian Walton (ankle) and forward Florin Andone (knee) are the only players unavailable to Albion boss Graham Potter.

Hakim Ziyech will miss out for Chelsea due to a knee injury.

Left-back Ben Chilwell is not ready to feature after a heel concern, while the Amex Stadium clash should come too soon for Brazil defender Thiago Silva.

Captain Cesar Azpilicueta and USA forward Christian Pulisic are in contention however, having shaken off injuries picked up at the tail-end of last term.

Brighton provisional squad: Ryan, Steele, Sanchez, Lamptey, White, Dunk, Webster, Veltman, Burn, Bernardo, Stephens, Bissouma, Propper, Molumby, Mac Allister, Alzate, Gross, Lallana, Jahanbakhsh, March, Trossard, Izquierdo, Connolly, Maupay, Gyokeres.
