Enock Mwepu flies into a tackle on Joshua King and finds himself just as quickly entering the book.

Troy Deeney tries to flick the ball between his legs but his lay-off runs off for a goalkick. Watford need those to stick with the front man. Brighton are defending their lead well.

Chance for Tom Cleverely as the ball breaks to the Hornets midfielder inside the box, though - his effort is crowded out by a sea of blue and white defenders!

Robert Sanchez attempts to come through a crowd of bodies to claim a looping cross but fails to get hold of it and Yves Bissouma has to help out his goalkeeper.

Much more direct from Watford now.

Troy Deeney gets up well at the other end but can't trouble Robert Sanchez. The threat is there.

Shane Duffy is up again from a Brighton corner! He meets this one almost on his way down but Watford fail to clear and Daniel Bachmann has to make a smart save from Solly March before Alexis Mac Allister clips across goal.

Troy Deeney is on for Watford, replacing Ken Sema. Get those balls into the box is the message.

The live win probability calculator has Watford down for a 0.2% of grabbing three points here...

Stranger things have happened.

How's that for composed defending?! Lewis Dunk takes a cross on his chest under pressure, helping it back to his goalkeeper. Superb.

Watford are pressing and it's leaving Brighton with some defending to do. Ismaila Sarr comes close to sneaking in behind the defence this time. The visitors have under 20 minutes to mount a comeback on the south coast...

Emmanuel Dennis has come in for some rough treatment but riles the Brighton fans when he flicks the ball against Alexis Mac Allister on the floor.

Graham Potter opts for a change, replacing Leandro Trossard with Enock Mwepu.

Hello! Cucho Hernandez fancies his chances from distance, flicking the ball up and hitting it on the volley, but his effort doesn't quite dip in time and loops over the crossbar. That would've been nice.

Is it too early to talk about the potential goal of the season?

I don't think so.

It's lovely footwork from Emmanuel Dennis after a swift Watford break, with substitute Joshua King bumping his marker off the ball before sliding a pass into his team-mate's path.

Dennis cuts the ball back between his legs before beating Robert Sanchez, but the flag is up.

Dan Riddle: Can't believe there are Spurs fans who thought we were too good for Potter. Brighton playing great football.

Ouch!

That's a bit of a naughty one from Shane Duffy, who kicks out down the back of Emmanuel Dennis' leg to stop the Watford forward getting away and finds his way into the book.

Knew what he was doing there.

Adam Webster pulls back Emmanuel Dennis and finds his way into the book.

Watford work it nicely from there, with Tom Cleverely testing Robert Sanchez low down to the goalkeeper's left. He saves well, but it's better from the visitors.

Good hustle from Aaron Connolly to win a corner. This is where Shane Duffy's opener came from, and he's up well again in the box but this time can't get a clean header away.

Solly March rattles into a tackle as the ball breaks, the delight of the home fans.

Watford are struggling to really make a dent in Brighton, the hosts look compact and hard to break down without the ball. Very solid.

Just trying to be a little too cute, the hosts. Leandro Trossard works it across the top of the box to Solly March, who might fancy a pop but instead looks for a pass that runs loose.
