YVES Bissouma is among the Albion stars at risk of suspension due to the number of yellow cards they have received.

Brighton and Hove Albion have picked up a total of 48 bookings in the first 26 fixtures of this season – two of which were red cards.

In the Premier League, if a player receives five bookings before match week 19, they receive a one-match suspension.

By match week 32, if a player has 10 yellows cards, they will be given a two match ban. By match week 39, 15 bookings will result in a three-match ban.

Yves Bissouma has been cautioned seven times this season, while Shane Duffy has received six yellow cards.

Both players missed one match each earlier this season for receiving five yellow cards in the opening 19 fixtures.

Joel Veltman has received five yellow cards, while Marc Cucurella, Adam Webster, Adam Lallana and Neal Maupay are all on four.

Only six players in the Premier League have been booked more times this season than Bissouma - Rúben Neves, Josh Brownhill, Matthew Cash, Junior Firpo, Scott McTominay and Mohammed Salisu.

Graham Potter’s side are also one of the most booked sides this season.

Only Leeds United and Newcastle United Aston Villa, Manchester United have picked up more yellow cards so far.

Albion face Newcastle United at 3pm today Saturday, March 5.

Their next home fixture is against Liverpool at 12.30pm on Saturday, March 12.

Earlier this week, Albion announced they will show solidarity with Ukraine following the invasion of Russia by wearing their third choice kit, which colours match Ukraine’s flag.

The men’s and women’s team will wear the yellow and blue strip for the fixtures at Newcastle United and Aston Villa, in the Premier League and Women’s Super League respectively.

Deputy chairman and chief executive Paul Barber said: “Like so many across the world, everyone at our club is horrified by the invasion of Ukraine, and we add our voice to the many calls for peace.

“We also want to show our full support for the people of Ukraine, and to all those who are suffering innocently from this terrible conflict, not least the many children.”
