Chelsea continue their march towards the top six as they take on Brighton at the Amex Stadium!
Brighton, currently in 10th place, will face seventh-placed Chelsea at home on Wednesday evening for this rescheduled Premier League matchday 34 fixture. This will be the second-to-last game for both teams before the final round of fixtures this weekend. Brighton enters the match with a confidence-boosting 1-0 victory over Aston Villa at the AMEX and a 1-1 draw against Newcastle United over the weekend. These results have placed them 10th in the standings, and with wins in their last two games, they have a shot at finishing as high as eighth. Despite only securing one win in their last seven matches, along with three draws and three losses, Brighton faces a formidable challenge against a Chelsea side currently experiencing their best form under Mauricio Pochettino.
Chelsea comes into the game on the back of three consecutive wins, having defeated Tottenham (2-0) and West Ham (5-0) at home, followed by a hard-fought 3-2 away victory over Nottingham Forest on Saturday evening. Over their last 13 Premier League fixtures, Chelsea has suffered just one loss, a 5-0 defeat to Arsenal. They have won seven of these matches and drawn five, with four of the draws occurring away from home. Both teams have scored in 11 of Chelsea's last 15 games, and they have managed only two clean sheets away from home this season, both in the first three away games. Chelsea has already beaten Brighton twice this season, winning 1-0 in the League Cup and 3-2 in the league, both at Stamford Bridge. With Brighton having lost just three times at home this season, Chelsea is in for a challenging match.
