Albion play Getafe in Spain on Thursday, kick-off 8pm UK time
It is matchday three of six in the Conference League league phase. Albion have four points from their first two games.

Brighton & Hove Albion play Getafe at the Estadio Coliseum on Thursday 5 November, kick-off 8pm UK time. It is the third of Albion’s six games in the league phase of the UEFA Conference League, and the last of five away games in a row.
Albion have four points so far. They beat Kauno Zalgiris 4-0 at the Amex in their opening game, despite making eight changes from the side that beat Sunderland. A week later they drew 0-0 at FK Jablonec in the Czech Republic.
They go to Spain after a 1-0 win over Manchester City at the Etihad on Saturday, the club’s first win there. Costinha made his first Premier League start in that game, and the club said he kept City winger Jeremy Doku relatively subdued.
“I think everyone knew before that he was playing against the best winger in the league, but how he managed it was really impressive,” head coach Fabian Hurzeler said of the 26-year-old, who joined from Olympiacos in the summer. Hurzeler said Costinha had played 90 minutes on the Wednesday and again on the Saturday. “He’s in very impressive shape.”
Before the Etihad game the club said Ferdi Kadioglu, Chema and Babis Kostoulas were back in contention. Chema and Kostoulas started, but Kadioglu was not in the matchday squad.
For fans going to the match, the club says tickets went out as digital tickets on Monday, and photo ID has to match the name on the ticket. Turnstiles open 90 minutes before kick-off, and the away end is Gate 7, blocks 27 and 28. Only small bags are allowed, and no alcohol is sold inside. Expect to be held in the ground for 20 to 30 minutes after the match.
If you are staying at home, the club is showing the game in the 1901 Pub at the Amex. Doors open at 5pm and tickets are £6, including your first drink.
Albion are back at the Amex on Sunday 8 November against Brentford, kick-off 2pm.
