[Albion] Blackburn v Brighton PL2 Tonight 19.00 K.O

[Taybha]

Brighton & Hove Albion’s under-23s take on Blackburn Rovers at the Leyland County Ground this evening, kick-off 7pm, and Simon Rusk’s team will be keen to maintain the pressure on league leaders Everton.

The Seagulls find themselves four points behind the Toffees with just four games remaining, and Rusk’s side meet the Merseyside club in their penultimate game of the Premier League 2 Division 1 season.

Albion have taken 14 points from a possible 18 to leave themselves hot on the heels of Everton, and another three points against Rovers will apply further pressure on the Toffees tonight, who play host to Arsenal.


Rovers visited the Amex Stadium back in October and took the lead after just three minutes, but Aaron Connolly drew the Seagulls level before Ben Barclay headed the winning goal in the 89th minute.

The Lancashire club find themselves just five points above the relegation zone, but Rovers secured an important 3-1 victory over West Ham United last time out to pull themselves clear of the Hammers.

Albion’s visit to the Leyland County Ground last season was a successful one — goals from Viktor Gyokeres and James Tilley sealed a 2-0 win, but Rovers managed to finish in top spot to win promotion to the PL2 alongside the Seagulls.

Supporters can follow a live text blog from the game on the Match Centre this evening.

Blackburn Rovers' goalkeeper, Charlie Albinson, played the first half of Albion U-21's friendly at Dorchester Town in July 2016 on trial after being released by Manchester City. He joined Blackburn a year later:-

I cannot find any live coverage from Blackburn.

Come on the Albion, every game a cup game from now.

The only way iv'e found to keep up with these games when there's no coverage apart from a 5 minute lag twitter feed is to place a £1 bet with 365 on the game , you then get a as it happens virtual gameplay pitch graph type thingy that gives you a rough idea where the ball is and all the stats ect , it's not much but it's better than nowt .

You can do it without placing a bet but you may need 20p in your account to get acces. But its odd and slightly addictive way to watch a game, it must be said.

Whats with the Dixon of Dock Green Avatar and in colour as well, not black and white.
