Brighton lose the ball and Steven Zuber has a crack from outside the box, tipped over by Bart Verbruggen.

West Ham have yet to register an attempt on target against Group A's bottom club. In more positive news, they're well on their way to advancing from the group. The question is: will they finish top or second?

Brighton's Igor Julio is a bit lucky to avoid a booking for basically wrestling with Nordin Amrabat as the AEK man went past him.

An attempt by Nikola Kuveljic sails over the bar. It's hardly worthy of a mention but there's been so little incident. A game lacking in excitement so far.

Brighton started this game on top but it's mostly about AEK now. Mijat Gacinovic beats Lewis Dunk but puts his shot into the near side-netting.

Another nutmeg foul, but this time it's Brighton's Joel Veltman who gets nutmegged and then fouls Mijat Gacinovic. A booking too.

Twelve minutes on the clock in Serbia. Twelve minutes of pretty much nothing.

Brighton's Kaoru Mitoma nutmegs Nordin Amrabat but then fouls the AEK players while trying to get it on the other side.

By the way, Lukasz Fabianski is captaining the Hammers tonight at the age of 38.

Now West Ham fans are making themselves heard.

"I'm Forever Blowing Bubbles" can be heard in northern Serbia.

Oh, that's a surprise!
