Burnley begin their campaign hoping for another solid season of steady progression when they face Brighton at Turf Moor on Saturday.

Sean Dyche has once again been forced to spend little and extract a lot from his crop of homegrown players with fresh youthful impetus preferred by the board to spending big on extravagant signings.

Dwight McNeil will be relied upon to provide attacking flair in a team whose first aim is always to remain solid against a Brighton team with loftier ambitions.

The Seagulls have floated on the edge of the abyss for several seasons but in Graham Potter they boast managerial hot property who is keen to build on his blossoming reputation.

Signings have also been slow through the doors on the south coast, but Brighton will hope their regular crop can step up and deliver clinical performances to dispatch teams expected to be around them in the table.

Our prediction: Burnley v Brighton

Brighton's main hope is Potter. He is the man tasked with transforming an average squad into a team that can flirt with the top half.

He has not been backed with major signings, so don't expect a revolution on the south coast, but Brighton's infamous xG rating from last season showed they do create plenty of good chances and just need an extra clinical edge to start taking them.

Both teams may need a little time to settle into a rhythm so expect a fairly sedate encounter.

Our prediction: Burnley 1-1 Brighton (11/2 at bet365)
