Elliott Bennett goes straight into the Brighton squad for the home clash with Stockport.
The young winger trained with his new team-mates for the first time on Thursday morning after joining from Wolves for an undisclosed fee.
Albion will be without striker Glenn Murray, who needs another hernia operation and is likely to be out for at least three weeks.
Goalkeeper Michel Kuipers serves a one-match ban following the sending-off which sparked Tuesday's 7-1 mauling at Huddersfield, so Graeme Smith takes the gloves.
Midfielder Andrew Crofts is rated 50-50 with a leg injury after being clattered against the Terriers.
Jake Wright has a hamstring strain, fellow left-back Jim McNulty turned his ankle in training and forward Gary Hart is still out with a toe injury.
Stockport manager Gary Ablett has sought special dispensation from the Football League to play Liam Bridcutt.
Under League rules, clubs in administration cannot sign players if they have 20 or more professionals already on their books.
But Ablett is hoping to be able to play Chelsea loanee Bridcutt in place of young midfielder Matty Mainwaring - who is currently sidelined for six months with a broken leg.
