To get the lowdown on Albion's opponents, West Ham, I spoke to Henry Tomlinson, who covers them for the Green St.Hammers:

What have you made of their start to the season?

Before the season started, there was a lot of expectation that West Ham would struggle this campaign. After the first two games ended in defeat, there seemed to have been a switch turned on in the team.

After wins against Leicester City and Wolves, there has been a completely different mentality around the club. The team has built on that momentum and are now challenging for the European spots, for now at least.

The football being played has been brilliant and very effective. The views on the start to the season are very positive, and hopefully, the team can carry on their form and make the most of their positive start to the season.

Where will they will finish this season?

The performance levels will drop eventually as Moyes has not rotated as much as the squad is very thin. As the first-team gets tired and needs a rest, points will start to be dropped more often.

This forced rotation could see the club slip down the table. Though they will be safe from relegation a spot between 9th and 12th would still be a sign of improvement from last season.

But if Moyes can bring in some reinforcements in the January window and providing the new signings settle in well, the Hammers could aim to finish in the top 8 and potentially challenge for a Europa League spot.

Who will Albion need to keep a close eye on?

Said Benrahma is a player that can definitely cause Brighton’s defence a lot of issues. The Algerian trickster was brought in from Brentford in the summer and has really impressed despite his limited minutes so far.

He may only be small compared to Brighton’s towering defenders, but his ability and close ball control can help him glide past less mobile players.

The forward's vision is also brilliant as he can create chances at will if he gets going.

How will they line-up?

(4-4-1-1) Fabianski, Coufal, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Cresswell, Bowen, Rice, Soucek, Fornals, Benrahma, Haller.

What will the score be?

I'll go 3-2 to West Ham
