Brighton Team News & History of BHA v Bristol City

The only selection difficulty for mark McGhee is wether to play Harty or Paul Reid on the right side of midfield. Playing Gary Hart on the right wing would surely signal a more attacking strategy than in the 2 games against Swindon.

Leon Knight is reported as recovering from an ankle injury sustained in that last nail-biting game against Swindon. But seeing as we all saw him jumping around celebrating with the rest of the squad, I think we all had no doubts anyway.

We have a very even record against Bristol City, of 65 matches played between the Clubs, the Robins have won 25 while we have won 24. The record should be level after Sundays game!

Our record win against Bristol City was 7-0 on the 6th May 1933 at the Goldstone, we also won 4-3 away on Christmas eve that season.

City's biggest win came in February of the next season when they beat us 5-0 at Ashton Gate. We did win 5-1 at home in the September of that season though!
