Brighton and Hove Albion have certainly had their fair share of injuries this term. Roberto De Zerbi has been without key players for large chunks of the campaign as he juggled Albion’s first ever Europa League campaign with the constant demands of the Premier League. The Seagulls are eighth in the table and resume action after the international against Liverpool at Anfield on March 31. The break will hopefully allow time for Brighton’s walking wounded to rest and recover for the last stage of the season – where they hope to qualify for Europe once more.
Here’s a run down on the full Brighton injury list and potential return dates ahead of Liverpool...
5. James Milner - thigh
The former Liverpool man has not featured since Albion's 4-0 loss at Luton Town. De Zerbi said he hopes to have him available after the international, with Anfied a realistic target. Photo: Mike Hewitt
6. Adam Lallana - various
The former Liverpool ace played almost an hour in the 1-0 win against Roma and looked good before being replaced by Buonanotte. Struggled to get fit this term and the international break could allow him time to recover. Photo: Steve Bardens
7. Ansu Fati - thigh
The Barcelona man has had a disappointing loan. De Zerbi is managing his minutes after a thigh problem but the Spain international has found the Premier League tough this term. Photo: Mike Hewitt
8. Adam Webster - various
The defender has struggled for form and fitness this term. Last played in the 3-0 loss at Fulham and just can't seem to get right physically at the moment. Should be available for selection at Liverpool, if required. Photo: Mike Hewitt
