Ange's injury update on Skipp

Ange Postecoglou has confirmed that Oliver Skipp misses tonight's clash with Brighton through injury.

A starter for us in our last outing - Saturday's 2-1 win over Everton - the midfielder has picked up a knock and thus is not included in tonight's matchday squad.

However, the injury is not expected to keep the England Under-21 international out for long with our Head Coach expecting Skippy to back ad available for selection for Sunday's home match with AFC Bournemouth. 

"Skippy got a bit of a knock," Ange said ahead of the clash at the Amex. "He should be okay for the weekend, but unavailable for tonight."
