Youth Players on the bench for Brighton?

[I bleed Tangerine]

Luke Mariette has just posted on IG in a hotel room in Brighton. Be nice to see a few of the younger lads on the bench tomorrow.

I think that Antwi and Bange will be given a chance tomorrow.

Sorry not in the know because obviously I can't get to the matches.
The youth team did have a match scheduled today at Accy but it got called off before the teams were announced which might have given a clue.
Teams can have 9 players on the bench in FA Cup games so it wouldn't be unreasonable to expect to see a couple of youth team players on the bench and they usually take "spares" as well.
Luke Mariette joined us from Wigan and is a 1st year youth team player.
If you click on the pictures on the official site you get a bit of information.

With the Covid news this is starting to make more sense.
