Evan Ferguson - Chance for SundayFerguson missed Thursday's match with an illness and has a chance for Sunday's match against Bournemouth, according to manager Roberto De Zerbi.

ImpactFerguson was dealing with a knee issue before the international break and then had to completely miss Thursday's game with an illness. It seems like he's playing through whatever knee issue he has, but this illness could prevent him from starting Sunday and it'll depend largely on how much he wants to push his striker.

James Milner - Picks up injury midweekMilner picked up an injury Thursday and is unlikely for Sunday's match against Bournemouth, according to manager Roberto De Zerbi.

ImpactMilner seems like a doubt for Sunday, as he's yet to be checked following Thursday's match. He's started three of the first six league matches and it seemed like he was set to feature regularly in UEL play, but an injury could derail those plans. Joel Veltman could be set for more time if Milner has to miss any.

Lewis Dunk - May not play SundayDunk (undisclosed) is a massive doubt for Sunday's match against Bournemouth, according to manager Roberto De Zerbi. "We can't take any risks, especially at this point of the seaso...

ImpactThis isn't a great update for Dunk, who missed Thursday's match with an injury suffered last weekend. On a short week, there's a chance he misses out Sunday, as well, which could mean starts for both Adam Webster and Jan Paul van Hecke at center-back.

Pascal Gross - Doubt with muscular problemGross picked up a muscular problem Thursday and is a doubt for Sunday's match against Bournemouth, according to manager Roberto De Zerbi.

ImpactThe life of UEFA play begins for Brighton and unfortunately it starts with an injury to Gross, who has rarely missed matches due to injury over the years. If he can't start Sunday, it could be both Billy Gilmour and Mahmoud Dahoud in defensive roles and someone else on a bigger set-piece role.

Ansu Fati - First Brighton startFati made his full debut and played 90 minutes during Thursday's 3-2 loss to AEK.

ImpactFati was in the starting XI for the first time since switching to Brighton and struggled to live up to the hype. The attacker shot once and drew three fouls but failed to create a chance or get on the scoresheet. Still Fati is wildly talented and should have the chance to continue his development on the South coast.

Pervis Estupinan - Goes 90 in startEstupinan played the full 90 and was shown a yellow card during Thursday's 3-2 loss to AEK.

ImpactEstpuinan was rested against Manchester United and got the start against AEK. He didn't look at his best, whether that was due to fatigue or something else Estpuinan wasn't up to his own lofty standards. His next chance to get back to his best is a Sunday clash with Bournemouth.
