Matt O’Riley Set for Tuesday Night Full Debut
Matt O’Riley is poised to make his full debut for Brighton in their Carabao Cup match against Crawley Town on Tuesday night, just over 24 hours after his transfer from Celtic was officially announced.

O’Riley’s move to the Premier League outfit fetched a record-breaking £30 million package for Celtic.

Kick-off is scheduled for 19:45 and is on Sky Sports +.
He’s match-fit, after training and starting the season with Celtic. He missed the weekend’s away win over St Mirren, as he was on the South Coast to complete his medical.
Celtic are in the market to replace O’Riley, and have made a £9 million offer for Arne Engles, and have also submitted a bid for LAFC’s Mateusz Bogusz. Signing both of these players would take up a huge chunk of the fee received from O’Riley.
The deadline is creeping up on Celtic, though, with the window slamming shut on Friday at 11 pm. Hopefully, there will be a few new faces in the building by then.
