Brighton striker Alex Revell could miss the rest of the season after suffering a serious knee injury in training.
The 23-year-old has netted ten goals for the Seagulls since his arrival from Braintree last summer, but now faces an early end to his first season of on the south coast.
Albion physio Malcolm Stuart told the club's official website: "The injury happened during training and we expect him to be out for six to eight weeks.
"A scan revealed he has torn lateral ligaments in his ankle and we will now need to see a specialist to decide the best course of treatment.
"We will decide whether to incarcerate the ankle or put him in a boot, but hopefully he won't need surgery."
