Brighton would return to action for the first time in ten days when they face Stoke City away in the fifth round of the FA Cup.
The Seagulls were scheduled to play a Premier League match on Saturday, but due to Newcastle United's participation in the League Cup final, the game had to be postponed. Having had more time to rest, Roberto De Zerbi's men will be looking to get back to winning ways after seeing their run of seven games without defeat ended against Fulham. Given that the defeat was the fourth time in their last five games that they failed to keep a clean sheet, it wouldn't be a surprise if they conceded at least one goal here.
Stoke City, on the other hand, have lost two of their last three league matches and go into this game as underdogs. However, Alex Neil's side can take heart from the fact that they have never lost to Brighton. They have remained unbeaten in the previous nine meetings in all competitions, which means they cannot be underestimated as far as progressing to the next stage of this competition is concerned.
Stoke City vs Brighton Betting Tips: BTTS
Although Brighton have been exceptional this season, defense remains a major problem, especially away from home. The only time in their last thirteen away games accross all competitions that they didn't concede a goal was the goalless draw against Charlton in the round of 16 of the EFL Cup.
Since in eleven of those matches both teams scored at least one goal, a bet on "both teams score" is the best option for this match.

Stoke City Team News
Alex Neil is expected to make some changes to the side that started against Millwall, especially in the final third where chances were not taken.
The hosts would not be able to rely on Josh Tymon, who is suffering from an ankle injury that has kept him out of action for the last seven games.
Josh Laurent, Ben Wilmot and Connor Taylor are each one yellow card away from suspension, but otherwise Stoke City have no other worries ahead of this game.

Meanwhile, the visitors will have to do without Danny Welbeck, who has contributed two goals and two assists this season.
The 32-year-old has missed the last two games with a hamstring injury and is also expected to miss this one, as is Polish midfielder Jakub Moder, who is suffering from a cruciate ligament injury.
Brighton & Hove Albion coach Roberto De Zerbi is expected to make some changes to the side that started the defeat to Fulham last time out, with Tariq Lamptey among those who could earn promotion from the bench.
