Footballer reporter for The Sun Jack Rosser previews Brighton's match against West Ham on the most recent episode of BBC Radio Sussex's, Albion Unlimited: "It's a game that West Ham dread every season because they have a bad record against Brighton. It should be entertaining.

"I think Brighton are probably looking better going forward, but both teams are struggling at the back this season. Both teams can be cut open, so there's definitely a chance for a good game.

"West Ham, a lot of people arrive going in thinking, there's no way we can win, the midfield is rubbish, everything is going wrong, we all hate the manager and then Tomas Soucek scores and cheers everyone up. Soucek is another player, who similar to Michail Antonio shouldn't still be playing in the Premier League, but is a great survivor in that team and makes a great impact at times. West Ham are definitely there to be got at if Brighton are at it going forwards."
