Brighton will hope to have striker Danny Welbeck back in the XI as they travel to Premier League leaders Arsenal.
Welbeck, 35, has been struggling with a lower back issue and missed Albion’s 0-0 draw with Sunderland at the Amex Stadium last Saturday.
Hurzeler confirmed Welbeck has been training this week and will have to decide if the former Gunner is fit to start against Mikel Arteta’s impressive team.
Brighton played Arsenal at the Emirates earlier this term and lost 2-0 in the Carabao Cup. “You can learn from every game and that's our approach,” said the German.
“To understand how they reacted to our change of formation and understand if it's necessary to change the formation again and understand where they might have problems.”
Here’s how Brighton could line-up for this one...
