Roy Hodgson has a choice to make up front with Christian Benteke and Alexander Sørlorth fit enough to feature, albeit after Andros Townsend and Wilfried Zaha impressed at Bournemouth. This team’s greatest shortcoming this season has been up front where analysis by Gracenote Sports, taking into account the quality and frequency of chances created, suggests they should have plundered 52 goals, rather than their measly 33. Benteke’s projected goal tally was 12. He has two. Brighton, relatively solid all season, will seek to blunt their bitter rivals and hope their hosts depart pining for Glenn Murray. Dominic Fifield
