The referee has been confirmed for Albion's trip to St Mary's on Sunday (12pm, BBC Sport).

Stuart Attwell will be the man in the middle.

The 38-year-old has taken charge of the Seagulls twice this season, with both games ending 1-1 (away to Crystal Palace and at home to Liverpool).

Albion's record when Attwell has been in charge is not too bad.

On the 16 occasions he has refereed games involving the Seagulls, they have won six, drawn five and lost the other five.

The last four times that Attwell has taken charge of games involving Albion they have failed to lose (winning one and drawing the other three).

Albion will be hoping to continue that run this weekend.

Andre Marriner will be in charge of VAR.
