Chelsea News and Form – Will Chelsea break the resistance of Brighton?

Chelsea are showing some signs that they can indeed rely on their younger players. There are signs that Frank Lampard may be the man to get the best out of thpse youngsters. While Chelsea continues to look like a thrilling attacking team, their defence is still one that is highly questionable. The Blues lost 2-1 at home against Liverpool last weekend, and that has seen them conceded exactly two goals in each of their last four Premier League games now and are without a clean sheet all term.

Brighton News and Form – Can Brighton avoid defeat at the Bridge?

Brighton are having to wait for a long time for their second league win of the season to come around. Their first one happened on the opening weekend of the new campaign and have won D2 L3 since then. They did get their second clean sheet of the season with a 0-0 draw at Newcastle last weekend. However, boss Graham Potter has to be concerned about the lack of goals recently. Brighton have netted just one goal in their last four games.

This is going to be a tough away assignment for them. Brighton have only won once in their last seven Premier League away fixtures. That one win was their victory over Watford at the start of this campaign. The Seagulls have only netted in two of their last seven away games in the flight. That sequence of games included a 3-0 loss at Chelsea last season. Brighton have managed just one win in their last fifteen Premier League games, home and away combined.
