Auto update
On OffBrighton make their first change as Maupay is replaced by Locadia. The Frenchman had to fine chances but his return to the side didn't include finding the back of the net.
Moder nearly capitalises on a defensive error - Shackleton plays back towards his own goal and his pass is picked up by the Brighton man whose shot is over the bar. He's had a couple of big chances this match and not found the target yet.
Another change from Bielsa as Jack Harrison makes way for Tyler Roberts.
Bissouma's pass in the centre nearly finds Lamptey in the box. There have been fewer clear-cut chances for the hosts this half. Leeds are looking more secure with the back four after the break.
It's getting windier at the Amex, if that's possible, Lamptey and Moder again combine well on the right before they cross. Meslier collects the ball at the second time of asking.
Signs of an improvement from Leeds - they again attack down the left before Rodrigo shoots over the bar from just outside the box.
Better from the visitors. Dallas and Harrison combine well on the left before the former unleashes a fierce shot that forces Sanchez to punch clear. That's the first time the returning keeper has really been called into action.
The resulting set piece - 10 yards from the byline on the right - is punched clear by Meslier.
Brighton have again started the brighter of the two, they are passing the ball around crisply and the only thing that's missing is that elusive first goal. They have two corners on the trot, the second of which goes long before Veltman finds Lamptey, who passes to Trossard. They Belgian wins a free kick.
Leeds just weren't able to get into that first half, they have to find a foothold in this match sooner rather than later.
They're back under way at Brighton, Firpo, tormented by Lamptey in the first 45 is off and replaced by Jamie Shackleton and Kalvin Phillips, who had one of his quieter games (as did most of the Leeds side) is off for Pascal for Struijk.
Brighton bagged £50m from Arsenal for Ben White. They will easily get that for Tariq Lamptey. Absolutely unplayable in the 1st half, terrorising Firpo throughout. Brilliant to watch a player know how to exploit their pace so smartly #BHALEE

5 - Tariq Lamptey has created five chances for Brighton in the first half versus Leeds, the most he's ever created in a single Premier League match. Energetic.

Somehow it's still 0-0 even though Brighton have had all the chances and most of the possession. They've looked by far the more dangerous of the two sides and the challenge for them now to to try and repeat that in the second half and hope to find that elusive goal. Leeds have been run ragged so far.
Wabster plays a delightful ball down the inside-right channel for the ever-impressive Lamptey whose cross fails to find a team-mate in the box.
A free kick for Brighton, just outside the box on the right, sees Llorente go down under a challenge. He looks in a bit of bother and as it's a head injury the match is stopped while the Leeds man is seen to.
Moder this time gets in behind the Leeds defence on the right. He plays in the ball which Cooper intercepts and in doing so touches the ball with is hand. Referee Pawson waves play on as you don't get penalties for those.
Another great chance for Brighton after more great work from Lamptey on the right. This time Maupay cannot get enough of the ball as his shot is glanced well wide. Brighton should be at least two goals to the good by now...
Moder drives into the box, getting to the byline before his shot-cum-cross hits the post.
Moder is on the right and plays a simple ball to the inside right channel for Trossard whose shot is saved at the second attempt by Meslier in the Leeds goal. The hosts have created a fair few chances this half.
Harrison has two crosses in a matter of 60 seconds that Brighton clear without too much fuss - Leeds need to get him into the match more.
It's a swing and a miss from Dan James as Leeds make a rare foray into the Brighton box. The Welshman has been isolated up front on his tod so far this match.
Bissouma receives the ball just inside the Leeds box, it takes an early shot which is high, wide and not so handsome.
A Trossard foul gives Leeds another free kick - this time just outside the box on the right. Raphinha's kick deflects off the wall and the ball is diverted to the back post but James cannot get a shot in on goal.
Free kick for Leeds in the Brighton half - a chance to create something. Alas the ball is hit directly into touch (much in the way you'd expected a fly half to kick for territory in rugby) and it's a Brighton throw...
Lamptey, very impressive so far, gets in another cross from the right which hits Cooper. The Brighton players appeal for hand ball but it's not given. In the follow up Trossard gets the ball in the box and hits a clean shot in on goal - it's destined for the top corner until Meslier gets a fine fingertip on it, deflecting the ball onto the post.
There's been plenty to admire about Brighton during this opening spell - easy on the eye but they've lacked the cutting edge in front of goal so far. Will they rue those two missed chances?
Leeds are now feeling their way into the game, stringing a few passes together.
Maupay then goes to ground in the area after a challenge from Cooper, there's nothing in it and Craig Pawson understandably waves play on.
Raphinha dances his way into the box, Trossard is beaten and the Brazilian goes down. Play is waved on but the Belgian did stick out a leg as he fell over, it looks accidental, but they have been given. VAR doesn't intervene.
Raphinha eventually gets in the game - Leeds need to find their Brazilian star a lot today. He comes in off the right and plays a ball into the box, but James cannot get on the end of it.
Maupay, doubtless still thinking about that miss, has a dig from outside the box and Meslier easily saves.
Leeds just cannot get into the match - Brighton have had all the possession and the visitors have barely strung a series of passes together.
Brighton are dominating the early exchanges - they are passing the ball around well and causing the visitors some problems. They look confident and as I type they again attack down the right, Lamptey gets in behind the Leeds defence before putting in a low cross that eventually ends up at the feet of Maupay. But the returning striker never looked like scoring and side foots the ball over from all of four yards. That's two great chances missed already by the hosts.
Early chance for the hosts - great build up by Brighton sees Lamptey put in a peach of a cross from the right which Moder meets first time on the volley. The attempt, however, goes over the bar.
Both sides play attractive football and if the table was about mere aesthetics both would be near the top of the league. We're under way on the south coast, it's windy and cold, the worst conditions to play in.
Leeds are in their away strip which is a shade of the lesser seen colour, parma violet. Cannot see the chant 'come on the parma voilets' catching on...
5 - Leeds have lost their last five away league games against Brighton without scoring a single goal, while their last away league win against the Seagulls was back in November 2009 in League One (3-0). Dread.

Today marks the 10th anniversary of the death of Gary Speed. The Welsh midfielder was much loved at every club he played. One of those was Leeds, where he was a vital part of the midfield that helped the side to the 1992 top-flight title. The Leeds players and fans are remembering their former star and hero by wearing t-shirts honouring Speed.

On Maupay returning to the side...
"Neal is chomping at the bit to play, he's been good in training. I am looking forward to seeing the team play."
On Brighton's winless run...
"It's a game of fine margins, sometimes things go for you sometimes they don't."
