Starting Tuesday Ferguson (undisclosed) will feature in the starting XI against Bournemouth on Tuesday.

Impact Ferguson rejoins the squad after missing just one match due to his undisclosed injury. In his last five outings (three starts), the forward recorded nine shots (four on target) but remains stuck in a goal drought. Still, with Ferguson now fully fit, he should be the focal point of the Brighton attack and could score his fourth goal of the season.

Available against Palace Ferguson (leg) is available and will be in the squad for Saturday's match against Crystal Palace, according to manager Roberto De Zerbi.

Impact Ferguson missed out last week and was replaced by Deniz Undav in the starting XI, something that De Zerbi will have to decide Saturday. If Ferguson starts, he'd likely be the striker with Danny Welbeck moving to more of a midfield role. While if Undav was in, he played well in that attacking midfield role and it wouldn't be surprising if a similar squad was used Saturday, meaning a bench role for Ferguson.

Facing late-fitness test Ferguson (leg) will be re-assessed prior to Saturday's matchup with Bournemouth. Manager Roberto De Zerbi told reporters, "We will have to see about Evan [Ferguson]."

Impact Ferguson has been rolling offensively since returning to the squad.

If he starts versus Bournemouth, Ferguson could offer solid top-end offensive upside.

Injury could be short term Ferguson will not be out for the long term after undergoing tests on his knee and leg, reports Independent.ie.

Impact Ferguson was taken out by a rough tackle Saturday, but it fortunately may not be as bad as it looked. While he may not be ready to start a week later, the hope is that the absence will only be a week or two. If forced to miss time, Danny Welbeck is most likely to step into the striker role, though other tweaks have to be made with the news swirling on Moises Caicedo.
