Brighton v Crystal Palace (Fri, 20:00 GMT)
Brighton & Hove Albion
Brighton boss Graham Potter says Lewis Dunk will be unavailable for the game against Palace, but says he is "excited" about the return of Moises Caicedo from his loan spell in Belgium
"Lewis Dunk won't be involved in the game against Palace, it’s come too soon for him," said Potter.
"But we’re hoping he will be training with the team on Sunday. "We will see if he’s available for the Chelsea game, but we need to see how he goes.
"Moises Caicedo has played games for Beerschot and for his country and that of course helps him.
"It’s about him coming into the group now, he adds to us with Enock [Mwepu] out for a few weeks and quite a packed couple of months coming up. We’re excited about him."

Speaking about Crystal Palace and his opposite number Patrick Vieira, Brighton manager Graham Potter said: "Patrick [Vieira] has made good progression and has built on the foundations made by Roy Hodgson.
"The team are more attacking and they defend in a different way. I am impressed by what they have done under him."

Last but not least, let's hear from Brighton boss Graham Potter...
Newcastle United
More from new Newcastle striker Chris Wood on his move from Burnley.
"It's been a whirlwind 24-36 hours, very quick turnaround. Got a phone call after training on Tuesday. The decision was right for me.
"You have to go on what your gut says. It was the right time in my career.
"I have been at Burnley for four and half years, very happy and settled and nothing great ever happens in your comfort zone. You have to get out of that to achieve greatness. This is a big challenge for me but could be potentially great for me and the club."
"The opportunity to move club doesn't come very often. To turn it down when the club and manager pushed so hard to get me, I felt wanted, so there is nothing better than being loved as a striker. It was the right time for a new challenge in my life."
On Newcastle boss Eddie Howe:
"You've seen from his time in Newcastle, how he's changing the team and the way they play. Eddie's teams are well known for playing from the back and keeping the ball. He's got great ideas.
"I've seen it on the training pitch today and there is a lot of creativity in this team, I can see chances coming my way so I'm hoping I can do the business."

Here is what he's had to say on his move to St James' Park.
On leaving Burnley:
"It wasn't an easy decision. I just think it's a great opportunity. I've had four and half years there and enjoyed every single year.
"The staff and the whole club was fantastic, I wish I left with Burnley further up the league but you cannot plan these things.
"For me, there was no bad blood at all, I enjoyed my time there. Highs of being in Europa League and fighting relegation, the crowd were super and behind me and the lads. Nothing but great memories from there. This is massive opportunity and club and something I couldn't turn down."
Excited to play peak years at Newcastle:
"Extremely happy to be here. Some of the best years in my career. I have a lot more to give and I hope this team can bring the best out of me and hopefully even more than in recent years."
Talking of Chris Wood, the New Zealander has been talking at his first news conference as a Newcastle player this afternoon.
We'll have some of the best bits next...
Burnley v Leicester (Sat, 15:00 GMT)
Leicester City
With Burnley losing top goalscorer Chris Wood to Newcastle, Leicester boss says there is nothing opposition manager Sean Dyche could have done to keep the striker.
"It's disappointing for Sean," said Rodgers.
"He’s done great work with lots of those players. As a manager there’s nothing you can do if there’s a clause. He’s been a very good player for Burnley.
“We had Harry [Maguire] leave and Ben [Chilwell] left, and you have to adapt. You can grow. But you don’t just lose the player, you lose the personality.
"I miss Christian Fuchs and Wes Morgan here. They set the standard. It may be the same for Chris at Burnley. They will look at the next one to bring in."
Burnley v Leicester (Sat, 15:00 GMT)
Leicester City
Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers says he would like to bring in a defender this month, but insists it must be the right "profile" of player.
“It’s a difficult one for us," said Rodgers. "
"We have a pressing need to get a player at the back. It’s important to get the right profile. It can’t be someone just for the sake of it, it has to be someone who can be the right player for us.
"Financially, for us we’re not like other clubs that can spend the money. It will be difficult for a lot of clubs.
"The club have always been supportive and if we can get a player in, they will do that. There is a need now and that’s something we’re looking at."
Burnley v Leicester (Sat, 15:00 GMT)
Leicester City
Talking about the availability of his players and the return of James Justin for the trip to Burnley, Leicester boss Brendan Rodgers said: “We’ve got a number of players returning, so we are in a much better place.
"Patson Daka, Luke Thomas, Caglar Soyuncu, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, and James Justin, which is great news for us. Maybe not to start [Justin], but he’s back into the squad again.
"He’s looked very strong in training and we feel that he can be drip-fed into the games. We’ll take a final look at him tomorrow and get the reaction from him.
"To have him back is huge. If we get some players like him, we can have a big second part of the season. It’s going to take him time being out so long.
"But over the course of the second half of the season, I’m sure he’ll get back to his level."

Brighton v Crystal Palace (Fri, 20:00 GMT)
Crystal Palace
The Palace boss was also asked about the recent performances of Michael Olise.
"I don't think he's ready at all [to be the main man].
"The second half [against Millwall] was good, but in the first half it was quite challenging for him.
"He has kept doing what he's done since he joined.
"Even in his previous club we heard about his desire to improve. We need to give him time to develop."

Crystal Palace
Vieira on Brighton v Palace games:
"This is the type of game that players and fans really look forward to.
"We will go there with the same kind of ideas of playing and try to give ourselves the best chance of result.

Crystal Palace
Patrick Vieira spoke about any business the club might do during the transfer window.
"This period every manager will evaluate their team and look where they will need to improve," he said.
"If you look at our team we were very young and a bit experience.
"It's good for a manager to have more experience and maybe we need those characteristics."
Crystal Palace have been linked with Arsenal's Eddie Nketiah and here is what Vieira had to say on that.
"Why him? I have nothing to say about him. The manager has made it clear that he will stay at Arsenal."

Crystal Palace
Let's hear from Crystal Palace boss Patrick Vieira now.
On fitness and injuries:
"The only two players who miss the game tomorrow will be James McArthur and James Tomkins.
"Nathan Ferguson has been training the last couple of days and he will be part of the team who will travel tomorrow.
"Vicente Guaita wasn't ready and wasn't fit enough to play the Millwall game but I'm hopeful."

I understand Chris Wood's signing might polarise opinions but if, and it's a huge if, he scores the the goals to keep Newcastle up it will be great business. Never mind what people think the fans expect, being proactive gives us hope.

Brighton v Crystal Palace (Friday, 20:00 GMT)
Image source, Getty ImagesWe'll be hearing from Brighton boss Graham Potter and Crystal Palace manager Patrick Vieira soon ahead of their meeting on Friday evening.
Let's take a look at what happened the last time the two sides met.
The Seagulls and the Eagles are fierce rivals - and all that competitive edge came spilling out on a feisty Monday night in September.
Neal Maupay's 95th-minute equaliser sparked the drama, the Brighton striker clashing with Wilfried Zaha before the restart and then players and supporters getting involved in a slanging match at the final whistle.
Brighton boss Graham Potter referenced the "emotion and passion" triggered by Maupay's clever late finish, a chaotic way to end a heated encounter.
Palace had led from midway through the first half when Zaha converted a penalty after Leandro Trossard bundled over Conor Gallagher in the box.
A win would have put Brighton top of the English top flight for the first time in their history, but in the end they were grateful for a point.
It was the third consecutive time a fixture between these two sides had been changed in the dying moments - and both sets of supporters

Alex Whittingham: Feels like people are overlooking the fact that Newcastle have just signed Burnley's top scorer. They are relegation rivals and struggle for goals so is this a clever play?
Interesting thought this Alex, if so then they have weakened the competition unless Burnley have someone else up their sleeve?

Newcastle v Watford (Sat, 15:00 GMT)
Watford
More from Watford boss Claudio Ranieri on his side's chances of avoiding relegation this season.
"If you come to watch the training session, they [the players] are fantastic," he said.
"I have a lot of experience, and I say this team will be safe. It's unbelievable, our position.
"When I say I believe in my team, I see in the training session they work so hard. If you continue to fight and believe in yourself, sooner or later, you will win.
"That is important, that's what my experience tells me."
