Wolves are again set to be without injured pair Wily Boly and Morgan Gibbs-White.
Patrick Cutrone will hope to earn a recall to the starting line-up after scoring as a substitute in Wednesday's 2-0 win against West Ham.
Dendoncker and Cutrone strike as Wolves beat West Ham
Potter praises Brighton's "courage" after win at Arsenal
@SimonBrotherton: Brighton will be buzzing after their memorable win at Arsenal but the Seagulls must now show they can deal with Thursday-Sunday football as well as their opponents have done all season.
Wolves have qualified for the knockout stage of the Europa League with room to spare, and the midweek win over West Ham took their unbeaten run to 10 league games.
If they avoid defeat it will be their longest undefeated streak in the top flight since an 11-match run 57 years ago.
Albion will have had 24 hours fewer to recover and prepare for this game against opponents who have taken 10 points on the road this season, a record bettered only by the top four before the latest round of matches.
VIEW FROM THE DUGOUT
Brighton & Hove Albion head coach Graham Potter: "Anything is possible in this league, that's the way you have to think or else it becomes boring.
"We have to keep working towards what we're trying to achieve and maintain the spirit around the group."
Wolves head coach Nuno Espirito Santo: "I hope [the players] enjoyed their day off [on Thursday]. It was well deserved and they needed it. It was important they understand it's a day to rest, recover, stay at home and be with family and join us today to be ready for Sunday."
LAWRO'S PREDICTION
Wolves have failed to score in their last four games against Brighton
MATCH FACTS
Head-to-head
Brighton have lost just one of their last 10 games against Wolves (W4, D5).
Wolves have scored just once in the previous six meetings - a Connor Goldson own goal- and failed to net in the last four.
The Molineux side have also been unable to score in the last seven top-flight meetings.
Wolves' only top-flight goal against Brighton was scored by Mel Eves, in a 3-1 defeat at Molineux on 21 December 1979.
Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton could lose consecutive top-flight games at the Amex Stadium for the first time since a run of three defeats in March and April.
The Seagulls ended a three-match losing streak by winning at Arsenal, and have now won four and lost four of their last eight league games.
They have never won a Premier League home fixture after conceding the opening goal, losing 13 times and drawing seven.
Seven of Brighton's last 10 league goals have come from set-pieces.
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wolves are vying to go unbeaten in 11 top-flight games for the first time since August to September 1962.
They are undefeated in five Premier League away fixtures, their longest such run on the road in the top flight since a 10-match sequence in 1959.
They have taken 10 points away from home this season, a tally bettered only by the current top four prior to the weekend's games.
Joao Moutinho has set up 12 Premier League goals for Wolves - one short of the club record, held by Matt Jarvis.

Like the NHS. Whatever happened to that Labour concept.

doesn't work very well compared to the german system of compulsory employer/employee insurance.

How does compulsory employer/employee insurance work if you are unemployed or retired?

Still compulsory but contribution varies with income

Not even sure it’s ‘getting things done’ that will see Boris get the most seats. I think it’s much more to do with the unelectable alternative

Interesting remark there DJ. Especially as you mocked the USA for electing the clown we have in office right now. Hillary was regarded by many as "unelectable" too

I know the idea that politicians may tell the odd porkie to secure your vote is nothing new, but the way that Johnson in particular is spouting off any old nonsense, often contradicting himself and passing it off as fact is jaw dropping. More incredible though is the fact that people are buying it and will vote for him "because he gets things done". Yes, like introducing a customs border actually within the United Kingdom (which he now denies apparently) and will most likely turn out to be one of the most disasterous and irresponsible political decisions ever taken by a British Prime Minister.
And dont get me started on Corbyn and McDonald, lets just say, Ive read their manifesto and as a work of fantasy its a very good read, but not fit for purpose in the real world.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
the thing that annoys me most is how Johnson is allowed to get away with passing his withdrawal agreement as a trade deal, without being challenged. He keeps saying he has a great deal and will get Brexit done, when the truth is that we will be in trade deal for years. Brexit won't be done for a decade or more.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Correct. As well as the dozens of other trading nations that we will need to negotiate deals with outside of the EU.
I respect Corbyn to a degree, he appears to be a principled bloke with deeply held convictions which he lives by. There are very few like him left in politics. I can only refer however to one of the few things that I know something about which is the energy market and what Labour are proposing in wanting to nationalise it is simply unworkable.
I could bore with the detail but you wouldnt thank me for it.

Problem with politics is that morons are allowed to vote and with social media the way it is now they are very easily led

Can’t believe many people old enough to remember nationalised industries would vote for a return to those days

Brexit and Tories are decimating the pharma manufacturing industry. Boris winning a majority in this election will probably cause me to emigrate in the next 3-5 years.
All pharma manufacturing have already had to move all finished product testing out of the UK into the EU, so it can be distributed there following Brexit and in other countries with agreements with the EU (like Canada, New Zealand, Japan etc). Two parts of our plant have closed due to this in the last 2 years, with production of those products continuing in Hungary and India where it is more cost effective (fortunately managed to escape redundancy twice). Johnson's plans and the leaked trade discussions with the US would be the final nail in the coffin for this industry here.
