Finds bench role
Dunk (neck) is on the bench for Saturday's match against Sunderland.
Analysis: Dunk returns to the squad after recovering from the stiff neck that kept him out against Arsenal. The veteran center-back resumed team training Tuesday without any reported setbacks but will have to wait for an opportunity as a substitute against Sunderland. He provides experienced defensive cover after recording one goal, 16 clearances, three blocks and two clean sheets across four Premier League starts this season.
Cleared for Sunderland clash
Dunk (neck) is back available for Saturday's Premier League clash against Sunderland after recovering from his injury, according to coach Fabian Hurzeler, per Andy Naylor of The Athletic.
Analysis: Dunk has overcome the stiff neck that forced him to miss Brighton's clash against Arsenal before the international break, having resumed team training Tuesday without any reported setbacks. The veteran center-back has been a key figure in Brighton's defense this season, recording one goal, 16 clearances, three blocks and two clean sheets across four Premier League starts. With his fitness concerns now behind him, Dunk should be in contention to reclaim his regular starting role against Sunderland.
