Several Premier League clubs are dealing with notable absences as March begins. Brighton remain without defender Adam Webster and winger Solly March, both sidelined for 23 fixtures with long-term injuries. Their absence has tested the Seagulls' defensive depth throughout the campaign.
At Burnley, Connor Roberts (27 fixtures missed) and Zeki Amdouni (24 fixtures) continue their recovery, while Tottenham are still managing without Dejan Kulusevski, who has missed 23 matches.
Chelsea's Wesley Fofana is the latest name on the treatment table, missing the weekend's fixtures. Wolves also have concerns with Andre and Yerson Mosquera both absent from their midweek outing.
These absences will play a significant role in the final stretch. Managers face difficult decisions about squad rotation and tactical adjustments with key personnel unavailable. The clubs that manage their fitness best over the coming weeks will have a clear advantage in the run-in.
