The Toon manager said: "Brighton are a difficult opponent - I think they have been historically for us. We have won some, but we have lost some.

"They are very progressive, very attacking. I think it will be a good game between two very open teams."

On returning from international week, Howe also said: "It was a good break. We gave them some time off at the start of the week and then trained hard. We have worked on quite a lot.

"Everyone has come back in a good place. The only one we haven't seen back is Miggy (Almirón), he flew back into the country yesterday."
