Match Pack: Chelsea FC vs Brighton & Hove Albion FC

Based on the historical data and team form, Chelsea is the clear favorite for the match against Brighton & Hove Albion. Although Brighton & Hove Albion has been performing well in away matches, they have struggled against Chelsea in recent meetings. With an average of 1.53 Points Per Game at home, Chelsea has a strong home record in the Premier League, and they are expected to gain all three points in this match. However, the match is likely to be fairly low-scoring, with an average of only 2.64 goals in previous matches between these two teams.

Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi says he is “sad” for Graham Potter, who was fired by Chelsea over the weekend. The 47-year-old left the Albion for the Blues in September following a 40-month stint on the south coast, but his stay at Stamford Bridge was brief.

According to rumours, Chelsea co-owner Todd Boehly will be turned down if he contacts Brighton manager Roberto De Zerbi about replacing Graham Potter. The Italian is said to desire to stay on the south coast, but a high-profile management triumvirate is said to be interested in the top post at Stamford Bridge. Since taking over for Potter at the Amex Stadium in September, De Zerbi has transformed Brighton into a force to be reckoned with. The Seagulls are suddenly in contention for a European berth, attracting interest from a slew of prominent teams.
