Brighton V Chelsea Prediction

Brighton vs Chelsea: Redemption on the cards for Blues?

Recent form

Chelsea beat Brighton 3-2 in the corresponding fixture from the first half of the Premier League season.

Graham Potter's side have won just two of their last eight games, losing five times in that period, while Chelsea have won only four of their last nine trips to the Amex Stadium, with three of those defeats coming in their last four visits.

Team news

Brighton will be without long-term absentees Levi Colwill and Jakub Moder, with the latter set to miss out through injury.

Chelsea, meanwhile, have a number of players out injured, including Reece James, N'Golo Kante and Wesley Fofana.

Prediction

Chelsea will be looking to bounce back from their defeat to Manchester City last time out, while Brighton will be hoping to build on their impressive win at Southampton. However, the Blues have a good record against the Seagulls and should have enough quality to win this match.

Prediction: Chelsea 2-1 Brighton
