Albion are currently in their sixth consecutive season in the top-flight following promotion from the Championship under Chris Hughton in 2017, finishing second behind champions Newcastle.
Having narrowly missed out on promotion the season before, losing to Sheffield Wednesday in the play off semi-finals, the Seagulls went on to have brilliant 2016/2017 campaign, leading the pack for most of the season and featuring an eighteen game unbeaten streak.
The club confirmed promotion on April 17, 2017, with a 2-1 win over Wigan at the Amex Stadium sparking memorable scenes of fans invading the pitch and celebrating with the players and coaching staff.
A winless last three games meant they were piped to the title by the Magpies, finishing on 93 points after winning 28 games, drawing and losing nine games each, scoring 74 goals and conceding 40.
From that promotion squad, only Lewis Dunk and Solly March remain at the club, with the rest of the 27-man-squad either being sold, released or retiring from the beautiful game.
