Brighton's Premier League campaign and inaugural season in Europe resulted in a high turnover of injuries.

A total of 43 separate injuries were recorded, which is the third-highest of any top-flight club.

Research conducted for more than 20 years by the Premier Injuries website suggests that the total number of individual injuries across the league, where a player missed at least one Premier League game, was the highest they had recorded.

Many players suffered more than one injury.

Of Roberto de Zerbi's 26-man squad, 21 were ruled out at some point in the season. That is only bettered by Tottenham who had 22.

A total of 1,727 combined days were lost to these injuries and in their worst-hit game week De Zerbi had nine players absent.
