Alireza Jahanbakhsh is back in action after injury.
The Albion winger played the first 63 minutes of Iran’s 0-0 draw against Iraq in the Asian Cup.
It was his first game since suffering a hamstring injury late in the Seagulls’ 3-1 defeat at Everton on November 3 The draw means Iran top their group and will return to action on Sunday in the last 16.
Jahanbakhsh could have broken the deadlock but sent a left-foot shot off target late in the first half.
