Brighton have won four consecutive Premier League matches against Wolves.
However, Brighton are yet to win at home on a Monday in the Premier League, in recent attempts they have drew five and lost four in the nine fixtures they have had.
Wolves come into the game on the back of an FA Cup victory against Brentford, with Matheus Cunha’s penalty sending the Wanderers into the next round.
Brighton also come into the game following an FA Cup victory away at Stoke City.
In terms of absences, Wolves are without Hwang Hee-chan, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Boubacar Traore as they are on international duty. Midfielder Joao Gomes is out due to suspension.
Julio Encisco, Ansu Fati, Tariq Lamptey and Joel Veltman are out but will return next month. Solly March is also unavailable but is out for the long-term.
Both teams are currently in a good run of form, the visitors are unbeaten in their last five and the hosts unbeaten in their last four games.
A win for Wolves could move them to 10th, just a point behind 7th place.
Three points for Brighton could move them into seventh place.
