Prediction: Brighton 2-1 Leeds
Brighton are still desperately lacking consistency, which explains why last weekend's defeat at Old Trafford leaves them with a record of three wins, three draws and three defeats this season.
The Seagulls are generally reliable at home, losing just twice here since Christmas and are yet to taste defeat in front of their own fans this term.
Leeds are quite predictably winning the majority of their points at Elland Road but need to replicate that form on their travels if they want to stay clear of danger.
Their only goals and points away from Yorkshire this season came the 3-1 victory at Wolves in September.
