History & Preview for Brighton v Rotherham

Last updated : 03 December 2004 By Bob Gear
Leon Knight is expected to return to the starting line up as Mark McGhee looks for a first home win since our own 1-0 win over Leeds United.

Adam Virgo, who is in the Scottish Future Squad for next Tuesdays game in Germany, sits out the last of his 3 game ban. Expect Knight to start up front with Steve Claridge.

With the rest of the team pretty settled, it's down to wether McGhee prefers a 5-3-2 or a 4-4-2 for this game. I expect him to go for a more attack minded 4-4-2 with a line up something like this

Kuipers
Reed Cullip Butters Harding
Oatway Nicolas Carpenter Currie
Knight Claridge
