Jablonec are a stronger side than Kauno Zalgris and they have home advantage on their side.That will not be enough to halt the Brighton juggernaut, though. We expect Hürzeler’s side to be ahead at half-time as well as full-time, in what will probably be a reasonably straightforward evening for them. Back Brighton/Brighton in the half-time/full-time market at 17/20 with Midnite Brighton looking solidBrighton are renowned for their front-footed, attacking football, and we saw plenty of that against Crystal Palace.Before the international break, Brighton dismantled Arsenal – the Premier League champions, no less – in a similar fashion. They have now scored 34 goals in 11 matches this term.It is worth noting, though, that the Seagulls have kept clean sheets in five of their last six matches. They are as solid at the back as they are spectacular in attack.Jablonec will therefore find it difficult to make the net bulge against Fabian Hürzeler’s team. Another defensive shut-out beckons for Brighton.

Rutter was the star of the show, bagging a brace as Brighton got their continental competition off to a winning start.The 24-year-old is likely to be back in from the start against Jablonec, who will find it tough to keep him quiet for the whole match. Rutter can strike in the Conference League once again, as he aims to remind Fabian Hürzeler of his value to the team.
