Chelsea endured a rough past week, suffering defeats to Bayern Munich (UCL) and Manchester United (Premier League), conceding five goals across the two matches. They even trailed 1-0 at half-time in the League Cup before rallying for a 2-1 win over Lincoln City.
Despite their setbacks, the Blues have found the net in all but one match this season and will aim to use their attacking firepower to get back on track at home.

Brighton’s season has stuttered so far. Last weekend’s 2-2 draw with Tottenham left them 14th in the standings and still hunting for just their second league victory. The Seagulls have conceded heavily in recent games and will need a much stronger defensive display to avoid a fourth straight defeat at Stamford Bridge.
On the bright side, they’ve failed to score only once in the league and have been part of several high-scoring contests.
MatchPlug Prediction for Chelsea vs Brighton
Recent meetings between these sides have been goal-laden: at least three goals were scored in each of the last five clashes, and neither side managed a clean sheet. Both teams have proven dangerous in attack yet leaky at the back, which points to another open, end-to-end affair at the Bridge.
