New Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler used a total of 23 players in the Seagulls' first pre-season friendly on Wednesday, with his side managing to score five times. New signings Yankuba Minteh and Amario Cozier-Duberry both contributed goals in a game that was clearly more about building match fitness than the scoreline, but the lively performances will certainly have pleased the Albion's coaching staff as the new Premier League season approaches.
Tokyo Verdy were only promoted back to the J.1 League last season, but under Jofuku Hiroshi they currently find themselves comfortably in mid-table. After a rough start to the campaign that saw them win just once in the first 10 matches, albeit with only two defeats, their more recent form has been better. They've won five of their most recent 10 J-League games, but Brighton's Premier League quality is likely to be a stern test for them.
Here's how the teams line up:
Tokyo Verdy XI: Matheus (GK); Miyahara, Hayashi, Taniguchi; Matsuhashi, Saito, Miki, Onaga; Someno, Kimura, Yamami.
Brighton XI: Steele (GK); Barco, Van Hecke, Veltman; Milner, Mitoma, Moran, Yalcouye; Osman, Minteh, Welbeck.
