Brighton forward Danny Welbeck says the extended break between matches has left him feeling "rested, recharged and ready to go" against Newcastle United this weekend.

Fabian Hurzeler's side have been out of action since their 3-0 win over Chelsea on 21 April, but they travel to St James' Park on Saturday to continue their push for European football.

"We are all definitely full of confidence," 35-year-old Welbeck told BBC Radio Sussex.

"We've had some really good results and performances recently, which gives us confidence and momentum going into the remaining four games of the season.

"You do have a look at the table at the end of the weekend to see how things are, but it is important for us to not focus too much on that. We have to focus on what we can do, which is getting three points."

On passing 50 goals and approaching 200 appearances for Brighton, Welbeck said: "I just keep pushing every single day. It has been a good period for me.

"I've really enjoyed my time here at Brighton - and long may it continue. I'm happy, I'm feeling fit and strong, I'm in a rhythm, and I'm feeling good."
