Chelsea, managed by Mauricio Pochettino, recently experienced another disappointment with a close loss to Aston Villa at their home ground.
This added to Chelsea’s streak of three matches without a victory.
Brighton & Hove Albion made a strong comeback after a surprising Europa League defeat to AEK Athens, clinching a significant victory against AFC Bournemouth even after an early concession. The Seagulls have impressively recorded five victories in their first six Premier League matches.
Chelsea Form
Chelsea: Aston Villa (L), AFC Bournemouth (D), Nottingham Forest (L), AFC Wimbledon (W), Luton Town FC (W).
Brighton Form
Brighton & Hove Albion: AFC Bournemouth (W), AEK Athens (L), Manchester United (W), Newcastle United (W), West Ham United (L).
After their recent defeat to Villa, Chelsea has only one league victory this season, which was against Luton Town, a team many expected to struggle.
The Blues’ offense has been particularly concerning, failing to net goals in three consecutive games.
Chelsea struggles
In the Carabao Cup’s previous round, Chelsea fell behind against AFC Wimbledon from League Two but managed a 2-1 comeback.
Facing Brighton, a team in formidable form, Chelsea might not be as lucky.
Brighton’s win after trailing against Bournemouth and their current unbeaten streak make them intriguing contenders for a victory at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea v Brighton Best Bets
Given their recent performances, it’s challenging to favor the home team in this match.
Chelsea’s struggle in front of the goal is evident, as they’ve been goalless against opponents like Nottingham Forest, Bournemouth, and Aston Villa.
Their current standing at 14th in the Premier League is a testament to their form, with victories only against Luton and AFC Wimbledon since early May.
History on Brighton’s side
Last season, Brighton had dominant performances against Chelsea, winning 4-1 and 2-1. With the Seagulls in stellar form recently, securing three wins in their last four matches, they seem poised to overcome a struggling Chelsea side.
Brighton’s attacking prowess has been evident recently. They’ve netted at least two goals in their past four matches, and impressively, they scored three times in three of those games, taking on teams like Manchester United, Newcastle United, and Bournemouth.
Expect goals
With a tally of 20 goals from seven matches across all tournaments this season, it’s plausible to expect a goal fest from Brighton at Stamford Bridge.
Brighton’s current gameplay can be ranked among the Premier League’s best, and they appear well-equipped to penetrate Chelsea’s defenses.
