Leaves early against Man City Veltman was replaced by Pervis Estupinan after 65 minutes of Saturday's match against Manchester City.

Impact Veltman was able to walk off the pitch without assistance but asked for a change after running out his legs for the day. So long as nothing else comes up after some tests, Veltman should be able to keep up his streak of starting in each league match.

Scores in win Veltman scored a goal off two shots (one on target) and made four tackles (one won), two clearances and three interceptions during Sunday's 3-1 win over West Ham.

Impact Veltman had another solid performance on the defensive end, this time as a right back, but his biggest contribution came on offense as he netted a one-timed shot to draw things level at 1-1 in the 50th minute, paving the way for his side to close the season with a nice come-from-behind win. This was the first goal of the season for Veltman, who played equally well as right back and as centre back. Over his 34 appearances, the defender also added one assist, 17 chances created, 42 crosses, 85 clearances, 74 tackles and eight clean sheets, being a key piece for Brighton to have their best-ever EPL campaign.

Starting against Chelsea Veltman (hamstring) will be in the starting XI versus Chelsea on Wednesday.

Impact Veltman returns to the pitch after missing the club's Boxing Day clash with Brentford due to his hamstring problem. Considering the defender has zero shots on target in 14 appearances this season, fantasy players shouldn't be expecting much out of him in the final third.

Late test against Brentford Veltman (hamstring) "will be assessed in the build up" to Sunday's match against Brentford, according to Graham Potter.

Impact This isn't an overly positive update on Veltman, but it looks like he has a chance of playing Sunday after suffering an issue roughly a week ago. Still, he may not be risked if not fully healthy, especially with Shane Duffy and Adam Webster options to start again.

Picks up possible hamstring issue Veltman picked up a possible hamstring issue late in Wednesday's loss against Wolves, reports Andy Naylor of The Athletic.

Impact If Veltman indeed suffered a hamstring injury, it'll put him out at least one match and possibly more. Brighton are struggling for healthy bodies and while Shane Duffy is available following suspension, he's their only true center-back available to them.

In starting XI Wednesday Veltman (face) is in the starting XI for Wednesday's match against Wolves.

Impact Veltman appears to be playing at center-back Wednesday alongside Dan Burn due to Brighton's other absences. This limits any kind of fantasy value for Veltman, who no longer seems to have much of an attacking role, as Tariq Lamptey is now the guy on the wing and right-back.

DECEMBER 15, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Status uncertain Veltman (face) was not mentioned during manager Graham Potter's press conference, leaving questions regarding his availability versus Wolverhampton on Wednesday.

Impact Considering Veltman has started 11 of his 12 appearances this year, he should be a near-lock for the starting XI if given the all-clear. Even if he does start, the defender figures to be a low-end fantasy target given his lack of offensive upside -- he has just three shots (zero on target) this year.

Comes off injured against Southampton Veltman was subbed out of Saturday's draw against Southampton in the 78th minute after getting hit in the face. He made three clearances and won three of five tackles in the match...

Impact Veltman lasted about 10 minutes after getting caught in the face by a Nathan Tella foul, but he eventually had to be taken off. With Lewis Dunk (knee) and Adam Webster (calf) also injured, Brighton might have to dig deep for a defender if Veltman is forced to miss additional game time.

DECEMBER 4, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Sets up lone goal Veltman had an assist with his lone chance created while crossing three times (one accurate) and making eight tackles (winning five) during Monday's 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.

Impact Veltman set up Neal Maupay in the 95th minute assisting the lone Brighton goal to equalize late for a point. The assist was the first of the season for the fullback while his eight tackles led Brighton in the draw.

Plays 45 minutes off bench Veltman (close contact) played 45 minutes off the bench in Saturday's loss against Everton, creating two chances and committing three fouls.

Impact Originally expected to be out until after the break, Veltman was back in the squad Saturday and came on for Adam Mac Allister after half. With more training under his belt, there's a good bet he'll be back in the XI after the break having made 25 starts last season.

AUGUST 30, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Expected back after break Veltman (close contact) isn't expected to be back until after the international break, according to manager Graham Potter. "We're looking at after the international break for him,...

Impact It seems more likely that Veltman tested positive for COVID-19, as he's supposedly missing the first three matches of the season because of being a close contact. No matter the case, Shane Duffy has started and played well to begin the campaign, so Veltman's absence hasn't been fully felt just yet.

AUGUST 23, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Still out Saturday Veltman (close contact) will not be an option for Saturday's match against Watford.

Impact Veltman has to miss the first two matches of the season after being a close contact to a positive COVID-19 case. It's a wonder if he tested positive himself because most players haven't had to miss two weeks for being a close contact. His absence likely means another start for Steven Alzate.

AUGUST 19, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Misses opening win Veltman was not in the squad for Saturday's opening win against Burnley because he was a close contact of a positive COVID-19 case, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact Veltman was a surprise absence in the opening win, but he should be back in the squad for the next match, Saturday against Watford. He'll now have to win his spot back in the XI after Shane Duffy got a surprise start in the win, though he could also move into the XI for Steven Alzate.

Stays on bench in friendly Veltman (calf) has been pictured in training and was on the bench in Wednesday's friendly with Netherlands.

Impact Veltman probably isn't completely fit just yet, but he still has a chance to make the pitch in the next Netherlands friendly. For now, he's not expected to start, but that could change as group stages move along with his biggest competition being Denzel Dumfries at right-back.

Makes final Euro squad Veltman (calf) made the final squad for Netherlands ahead of the upcoming Euros.

Impact Veltman missed the final four matches of the season for Brighton, but it looks like he's healthy enough to take part in Euros. His health will be made known in upcoming friendlies and if all is well, he could be the starting right-back for Netherlands if called upon.

Out against Arsenal Veltman (calf) is not an option for Sunday's finale against Arsenal, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact This was expected to be the case for Veltman, who has been out three weeks with a calf issue. It's an unfortunate end to what has been a successful first season in the Premier League, compiling one goal, one assist, 63 crosses and seven clean sheets in 28 appearances (25 starts).

MAY 21, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Remains out Veltman (calf) is not available for Tuesday's match against Manchester City, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact It's looking more like Veltman won't return again this season, as he recovers from a calf injury. He'll miss his third-straight match Tuesday and is unlikely to push through the injury with nothing to play for. His continued absence means more time for Alireza Jahanbakhsh on the wing.

MAY 17, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Unlikely for West Ham Veltman (calf) is still recovering and unlikely for Saturday's match against West Ham, according to manager Graham Potter.

Impact It doesn't look like Veltman will push a return Saturday, which is probably for the best. His absence means Brighton will have to mix things up even further against West Ham, especially since Lewis Dunk and Neal Maupay are suspended. There's a chance Potter decides to start Jakub Moder and Alireza Jahanbakhsh on the wings, but he could also move to a four-man back line.
