Can Albion overcome the ‘new manager bounce’ at Watford?
Danny Welbeck was also suffering from the effects of Covid, limiting him to an appearance off the bench at Spurs.
Meanwhile, Adam Lallana was substituted at half-time as a precaution. The former Liverpool and Southampton midfielder was making his first outing since tweaking a hamstring during the 1-1 draw against old rivals Crystal
Palace at the Amex Stadium on January 14.
Potter will be hoping that all four will be close to full fitness for Saturday’s trip to Vicarage Road.
FA Cup defeat at Spurs won’t damage Albion’s confidence, says Joel Veltman
The Dutch defender, who came off the bench on Saturday at Tottenham, said: “There was an important message after Saturday from the gaffer [Graham Potter], to keep going and start another run of good results.
“We were defeated by a top team so we have to rectify that and come back strongly against Watford, just as we did against Leicester in the League two weeks ago.” What time is kick-off? Watford vs Brighton will kick-off at Vicarage Road on
