Brighton & Hove Albion's Dean Hammond warns Wolverhampton Wanderers that they are in for a tough test in this weekend's relegation decider.

Brighton & Hove Albion's Dean Hammond has warned Wolverhampton Wanderers that they will not be given an easy ride in their must-win clash with the Seagulls this weekend.

Wolves need three points from the game to avoid successive relegations, but the Brighton midfielder insists that his side are not about to surrender their unbeaten home record for 2013, despite being almost guaranteed fourth place.

"We enjoy playing at home at the moment. It's the last game at home of the official season so we want to end well in front of our fans," Hammond told the Brighton Argus.

"It's going to be a full house and a difficult game, because Wolves have got to win to stay up, so it will be interesting.

"We are on a good run of form. We'd like to stay unbeaten, finish the season with a win and then we will go with massive confidence."

Wolves go into the game in 23rd place in the Championship, three points off Peterborough United in 21st, with an inferior goal difference.
