Teddy Jenks has worn the armband so far this season for the under-23s.

Albion's under-23s will look to make it six games without defeat this evening when they host Leicester City at the American Express Elite Football Performance Centre, kick-off 7pm.

Fans will be able to watch the game live on MyAlbion TV which is free to view by clicking here. 

The young Seagulls were 1-0 winners over Liverpool last Saturday thanks to a fine second half striker from Reda Khadra – his second in as many matches. 

Leicester City sit 10th in the table ahead of tonight's contest.

They were on the end of a 4-0 defeat to Manchester City last Sunday. Their sole win this season was a 2-0 victory at Manchester United in their opening contest of the campaign.

View from the coach...

Simon Rusk said, "The lads have started the season really strongly and we hope to continue that on Friday night.

"We have faced some top sides, so to be second and unbeaten after five matches deserves plenty of praise for everyone in the group.

"Leicester will be another tough test for us, but if perform to the levels we have been then we’ll give ourselves a good chance of getting another positive result."
