CHANCE! A cross from the left causes Maenpaa all sorts of problems, and it comes back off the chest of Suttner in a mad scramble, before the goalkeeper can cling on.
90'
POST! Baldock tries to direct the ball goalwards from a low cross, but can only find the angle of post and bar! So unlucky!
88'
Coventry have been pressing Brighton into mistakes in the last 10 minutes or so. That goal has really buoyed them, but it's almost certainly too late for a comeback now.
86'
Haynes does well to get down the left, but he tries a little too much with it and the ball runs away form him. The left-back then ends up giving a free-kick away as he tries to win it back.
84'
The ball just doesn't quite fall for Coventry as a cross from the left is just behind Clarke-Harris, and Bayliss is second to the loose ball as he looked to strike it first-time.
82'
Suttner whips in his first poor cross of the day, sending it far too close to Burge, who can hold onto it.
81'
SAVE! Baldock tries to flick the ball over his head and volley on the run down the left side of the box, but the keeper is out quickly to grab hold of it!
79'
M. Biamou enters the game and replaces J. Barrett.
Barrett is replaced by Biamou as Coventry give it one last push.
78'
MISS! Knockaert almost makes it 4-1 moments later as he takes a touch from March's cut-back and tries to tuck the ball into the near post, but curls it just wide!
Minute
Description
77'
S. Baldock enters the game and replaces J. Locadia.
J. Clarke-Harris has scored a goal for Coventry City!
Locadia's debut comes to an end as he's replaced by Baldock. The new man has had a good first day on the job.
GOAL! Clarke-Harris latches onto a long ball from the goalkeeper that isn't dealt with by the Brighton defence, lashing a first-time shot into the far corner from inside the box! There's something for the away fans to cheer.
74'
J. Ponticelli enters the game and replaces M. McNulty.
Top-scorer McNulty is replaced by teenager Ponticelli for the final 15 minutes or so.
73'
MISS! Locadia can only head Suttner's corner wide at the near post! He's had plenty of chances in this game!
70'
CHANCE! It's deflected behind for a corner, but Brighton get hold of it and Bruno surges forward, before whipping a lovely ball in that Knockaert just can't get onto at the back post!
69'
McNulty wins another free-kick in the Brighton half, and perhaps there's an opportunity to get one back here.
64'
NO PENALTY! McNulty's shot is blocked and then he goes over in the box trying to latch onto the rebound, but there's a shake of the head from the referee, who was in a good position.
63'
MISS! The chances are flowing thick and fast now! Goldson can only head March's cross over the top from a promising position!
62'
POST! Clarke-Harris is played in by Bayliss, and he flicks it across the advancing goalkeeper, but he's so unlucky to see it come back off the far post!
61'
L. Ulloa has scored a goal for Brighton & Hove Albion! Assist by Bruno Saltor.
It was a really dangerous area that Bruno delivered into, and it's the sort of service that Ulloa thrives off.
GOAL! That's surely game over now! Knockaert picks up the pieces of an overhit cross and lays it back to Bruno, who delivers into a dangerous area for Ulloa to power a header into the top corner!
60'
BLOCK! A brilliant ball sends Knockaert on his way down the right. He comes inside and lays it off to Locadia, whose shot is blocked.
59'
Coventry get another set-piece opportunity, but Maenpaa does excellently to calmly claim the cross. Very good goalkeeping.
57'
R. McDonald enters the game and replaces J. Grimmer.
Coventry make a change as right-back Grimmer comes off for centre-back McDonald. Could we see a change of shape here?
54'
CHANCE! Barrett's effort is poor and straight into the wall, but it's worked back into the box from the right by Grimmer, but McNulty's spinning volley is over the bar. Not an easy opportunity for the striker to take.
53'
Clarke-Harris wins a free-kick right by the left corner of the box. Good area for Coventry to try and exploit here.
51'
Grimmer is fouled by Kayal, but the referee plays the advantage and the ball is fizzed into the area from the right, but Brighton manage to clear it away.
50'
Coventry get forward through Clarke-Harris, but he's crowded out on the left and has to settle for a throw-in.
48'
Kayal is down, and Hughton will hope he doesn't have to use his third substitution with just three minutes of the second half played.
46'
N. Mäenpää enters the game and replaces T. Krul.
D. Pröpper enters the game and replaces D. Stephens.
Hughton replaces Stephens with Propper at halft-time. No sign of an injury, perhaps just freshening things up.
Krul's knock, however, sees him forced off and replaced by Maenpaa.
45' +1
MISS! Knockaert pounces on a loose square pass and races down the other end, cuts inside and releases a shot at goal, but it's high and wide. That's the end of the first half!
45'
Just one minute to be added on at the end of the half.
44'
Coventry have a third free-kick from 20 yards or so away, but Grimmer's header from the lofted ball goes behind for a goal-kick. Perhaps a shot would have been a better option from the free-kick.
43'
Ulloa makes a good run into the left channel, but the ball into him is overhit and goes behind for a goal-kick.
40'
MISS! Knockaert then takes the ball on his chest on the right, allows it to bounce once and then smacks a half-volley at goal from inside the box, but he gets too much height on it and it flies over the bar.
39'
SAVE! Brighton respond almost immediately through Locadia, but his left-footed drive is saved comfortably by the keeper.
38'
MISS! Barrett comes in off the left, juggles the ball in the air and hits a volley on the turn that flies just wide of the post!
37'
Bayliss goes on a determined, bursting run down the right, but he just overruns it as he cuts inside and into the box, and Brighton get it away.
34'
C. Goldson has scored a goal for Brighton & Hove Albion! Assist by M. Suttner.
Suttner's crosses from set-pieces and open play have been consistently excellent, and he and March provide a real wide threat on the left.
GOAL! Goldson makes it 2-0! Knockaert wins a corner on the right, and Suttner provides yet another fantastic delivery to the back post the centre-half nods in! Brighton looking comfortable now.
31'
MISS! That was a lovely move from Brighton! Suttner is played in behind with a fantastic through-ball and his cross into Locadia is superb, but the striker just can't get there in time to make a good connection, and he can only stab it wide!
29'
BLOCK! The ball is worked to Locadia on the edge of the box, and he cuts inside onto his left foot and tries to bend one at goal, but it's blocked well!
27'
Krul jumps for a free-kick and collides with Clarke-Harris, before going down in a heap and writhing in pain. He looks like he should be okay to continue, and he gets a free-kick too.
26'
Knockaert doubles up with March on the left and they win the ball back in the corner, but the Frenchman's right-footed cross is poor and it's cleared behind off March for a goal-kick.
23'
CHANCE! What a waste! March has been a threat down the left throughout so far, and he gets the better of his man again to race to the byline and cut the ball back for Locadia, but he can't get his feet sorted out and misses the ball completely with his left foot! He could have had a hat-trick already here!
20'
A great ball from March towards Ulloa is dealt wth really well by Hyam, who reacts quickest to get to the ball first and hook it away.
18'
NO PENALTY! March takes a tumble in the box, but the referee isn't even remotely interested in awarding a penalty, and March doesn't really appeal for it either.
16'
Poor decision from McNulty to shoot from distance and a tight angle when he had an option to his right.
15'
J. Locadia has scored a goal for Brighton & Hove Albion! Assist by A. Knockaert.
Knockaert's cross on his weaker right foot seemed to lack the pace and direction to really cause problems, but the Coventry defence couldn't quite get a toe to it and allowed Locadia the opportunity to fire home.
GOAL! Locadia scores on his debut to put Brighton into the lead! Knockaert's low cross from the right looked poor, but Coventry don't deal with it and Locadia smashes it first-time into the bottom-left corner! Excellent finish from the striker! It's 1-0 to Brighton!
13'
CROSSBAR! Coventry win a corner through McNulty on the left, and Clarke-Harris rises highest from the cross to glance a looping header off the bar with Krul beaten! What a chance for the League Two side!
11'
Clarke-Harris takes the ball down casually in the Brighton box after a long ball forward. He's in behind, but he's offside and he knows it.
7'
MISS! Another chance for Brighton from a corner, as Stephens heads Suttner's cross wide of the mark. Chances at both ends here early on!
5'
POST! Massive chance for Brighton! Suttner's corner is worked back into the box, and Locadia nearly gets off to a flying start as he swivels and smashes the ball back off the post from inside the box! It falls for Goldson, who crosses to the back post, but Ulloa - unmarked - miscues his shot with the goal gaping!
4'
March whips the ball in from the left and Burge fumbles it, but thankfully his defence can clear away before a Brighton forward can take advantage of the loose ball.
3'
Another good move from Coventry sees Bayliss and Kelly combine to try and slip McNulty in behind, but it's a difficult pass to find and Krul can gather.
1'
We are, belatedly, underway in Brighton as Coventry kick us off for the start of the first half!
SAVE! Coventry win a free-kick a little over 20 yards from goal within the opening 15 seconds, and Shipley strikes one past the wall, but Krul can hold the shot relatively comfortably! Good start from the underdogs though!
Hello and welcome to our LIVE coverage of the FA Cup fifth-round fixture between Brighton and Hove Albion and Coventry City at the Amex Stadium.
Chris Hughton's Brighton host Coventry in the fifth round of the FA Cup, having just drawn with Stoke City - the last Premier League scalp to be claimed by the League Two side.
Brighton sit just two points off the relegation zone, and have just two wins from their last 16 Premier League games, but they are unbeaten in their last four games in all competitions (W2 D2), having knocked Middlesbrough out in the fourth round.
Meanwhile, Coventry are chasing a play-off place in League Two, and are ninth in the division. However, the Sky Blues have lost their last three league games in succession, having won their previous three in all competitions.
STAT: Brighton have only won one of their last nine games against Coventry in all competitions (D4 L4). Their last meeting was a Championship victory for the Sky Blues in 2011.
STAT: No fourth tier or lower side has ever eliminated two top-flight clubs in the same FA Cup campaign (since the fourth tier was introduced in 1958-59). Having already eliminated Premier League opposition in Stoke, Coventry could break that record by beating Brighton on their own patch here.
STAT: Coventry have won two of their three FA Cup ties against Brighton, beating them in the second round via a replay in 1910-11 and in the third round in 2005-06, while losing in the first round in 1953-54.
However, the last time the Seagulls were a top-flight club, they reached the final of the FA Cup, losing 4-0 in a replay to Manchester United in 1983.
STAT: Furthermore, Brighton have only lost two of their last 15 FA Cup home games (W8 D5), both of which came against Arsenal.
The line-ups have been announced, and we'll start with the home side.
Brighton XI (4-4-2): Tim Krul; Markus Suttner, Uwe Hunemeier, Connor Goldson, Bruno; Solly March, Dale Stephens, Beram Kayal, Anthony Knockaert; Leonardo Ulloa, Jurgen Locadia
Brighton substitutions: Sam Baldock, Tomer Hemed, Davy Propper, Lewis Dunk, Liam Rosenior, Jose Izquierdo, Niki Maenpaa
Coventry XI (4-4-2): Lee Burge; Ryan Haynes, Dominic Hyam, Jordan Willis, Jack Grimmer; Jordan Shipley, Liam Kelly, Tom Bayliss, Josh Barrett; Marc McNulty, Jonson Clarke-Harris
Coventry substitutions: Peter Vincenti, Rod McDonald, Chris Stokes, Jordan Ponticelli, Liam O'Brien, Maxime Biamou, Dion Kelly-Evans
Hughton makes nine changes from his side's 1-1 draw with Stoke last time out - only March and Propper stay in the side. New signing Locadia makes his debut up front alongside Ulloa - also making his first start since rejoining the club from Leicester City on loan. Midfielders Jiri Skalak and Steve Sidwell (both ankle) remain sidelined.
There are four changes for Coventry following their 2-1 defeat to Colchester United in their last match. Stokes, McDonald, Vincenti and Biamou all drop to the bench, while Haynes, Grimmer, Barrett, and Clarke-Harris take their places. Jordan Maguire-Drew is unavailable to face his parent club, while Kyel Reid is cup-tied from his loan spell at Colchester.
Platform closures at Brighton station have caused delays, so the kick-off has currently been postponed until 3:15pm.
After an end-to-end opening 15 minutes in which both sides hit the woodwork, Locadia converted a low cross on his debut to put the Premier League side ahead. From there on in, the Seagulls dominated the game and created chance after chance, and Goldson headed Suttner's cross in at the far post to make it 2-0. That's how it stayed until the end of the half, and Brighton could easily be three or four goals ahead here.
And Brighton are through to the quarter-finals! An early strike from Locadia, followed up by headers from Goldson and Ulloa put them in an outstanding position, before Clarke-Harris gave the League Two side's fans something to celebrate. In truth, though, the Seagulls dominated the game and created chances aplenty, playing some really good football. The deliveries from Reach and Suttner on the left were a real positive for the hosts going forward, as they extend their unbeaten run to five games in all competitions. Coventry, meanwhile, slump to their fourth defeat on the trot in all competitions, and face a real fight for a playoff place in the league. It finishes 3-1 to Brighton here!
