-------------------------------------------------------------
Brighton & Hove Albion - LDLLWD
Jack Hinshelwood (Foot surgery), Solly March (Knee injury), Kaoru Mitoma (Back injury) and Evan Ferguson (Ankle injury) won’t be available for Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi.

It seems likely that The Seagulls will possibly use a 4-2-3-1 formation for the game, utilising Bart Verbruggen, Joel Veltman, Adam Webster, Lewis Dunk, Igor, Pascal Gross, Billy Gilmour, Facundo Buonanotte, Jakub Moder, Simon Adingra and Danny Welbeck.

Brighton prepare for this game after a 1-1 Premier League drawn result vs Newcastle United.

In that match, Brighton & Hove Albion had 45% possession and 15 attempts on goal with 4 of them on target. The only player to score for Brighton & Hove Albion was Joël Veltman (18'). On the other side, Newcastle United got 18 attempts on goal with 7 of them on target. Sean Longstaff (45') was the scorer for Newcastle United.

It’s been seldom in recent times where Brighton & Hove Albion haven’t conceded. It will be a concern for them that Brighton & Hove Albion have seen their defence breached in 5 of their previous 6 clashes, shipping 12 goals along the way.

Chelsea - LLDWWW
Chelsea boss Mauricio Pochettino has not got a full squad to pick from. Carney Chukwuemeka (unknown injury), Ben Chilwell (Knee problems), Enzo Fernández (Groin surgery), Wesley Fofana (Cruciate ligament tear) and Roméo Lavia (Hamstring injury) miss out here.

There’s a good chance that The Blues appear most likely to begin the game with a 4-2-3-1 lineup with a starting lineup of Djordje Petrovic, Trevoh Chalobah, Thiago Silva, Benoit Badiashile, Marc Cucurella, Conor Gallagher, Moises Caicedo, Noni Madueke, Cole Palmer, Mykhaylo Mudryk and Nicolas Jackson.

Chelsea come into this game after a 2-3 Premier League win to beat Nottingham Forest in their most recent game.

In that match, Chelsea had 68% possession and 12 shots at goal with 5 on target. For Chelsea, the scorers were Mykhaylo Mudryk (8'), Raheem Sterling (80') and Nicolas Jackson (82'). On the other side, Nottingham Forest had 20 shots on goal with 4 of them on target. Willy Boly (16') and Callum Hudson-Odoi (74') scored for Nottingham Forest.

Showing their predisposition for eventful matches, goals have been celebrated 23 times in the previous 6 games in which Chelsea have taken to the field, yielding an average of 3.83 goals each meeting. Opposing teams have managed 8 of these goals. Despite that, it remains to be seen if the trend might be maintained in this next game.

Brighton & Hove Albion possible starting lineup:
Verbruggen; Lamptey, Dunk, Webster, Igor; Gilmour, Gross; Adingra, Pedro, Fati; Welbeck

Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Petrovic; Gusto, Disasi, Badiashile, Cucurella; Caicedo, Gallagher; Sterling, Palmer, Mudryk; Jackson

Prediction: Brighton & Hove Albion 0-2 Chelsea
While Chelsea can never normally be relied upon to bolt the back door shut on the road, Brighton's toothlessness in attack has plagued them for a matter of months now, and only Manchester City, Liverpool and Arsenal have won more Premier League points than Chelsea in 2024. Consequently, we have complete faith in Pochettino - who can also call upon some more fresh legs - to mastermind a fourth straight win for the Blues, keeping them firmly in the top-six race right until the last.
