Team News

Brighton
Chelsea
  • No fewer than nine players could miss out for Brighton here.
  • Chelsea are without Wesley Fofana, Romeo Lavia and Benoit Badiashile through injury.
  • Mykhailo Mudryk remains suspended by the FA after failing a drugs test.

Prediction

  • Brighton return to action after a tough week following the record-breaking 7-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest last Saturday.
  • Chelsea, meanwhile, secured an important victory over West Ham on Monday evening.
  • This fixture takes place twice in the space of six days, with Chelsea travelling to the Amex Stadium in Premier League next Friday night, too.
  • The Blues have won on just one of their last three trips to East Sussex, so expect a well-fought battle here.
