Brighton boss Graham Potter says the home fans will be important today against Leicester City.

The Seagulls are unbeaten in six consecutive home games, a run that stretches back to April, when they drew 0-0 with Norwich City.

Potter said, “It helps if you've got that connection with the fans, that atmosphere makes it very hostile for the away team. I think everybody in football will say if you go to a ground where the crowd are with the home team there's a real connection, a real passion and emotion. It's then hard for the away team.

“You have to work towards that, you have to create that and we've tried our best to do that.

"We've got better and better, we've come out of a period where obviously nobody was in the stadiums but I think more and more we're playing a bit better, the supporters are more and more with us and I think there's been a really good atmosphere at the Amex."
