Newcastle United boss Steve Bruce believes Graham Potter is benefiting from the work done by predecessor Chris Hughton.
The two teams will meet on Saturday night.
Bruce believes Potter, who took over from former United boss Hughton almost two years ago, has made Brighton "easy on the eye" - but insists it will be "all to play for" when the two sides meet under the lights.
"We all know they've changed dramatically since Chris," he said. "Chris set them on their way, and with what they've done over the last four five six seven eight years or however long - the training ground, the stadium, what they've done, how they play now.
"They're very easy on the eye because Graham plays in a certain way, which is obviously possession-based, and they've had a couple of good results of late. It's all to play for, a big, big game, so let's hope we can grasp it and beat them on the night."
