Chelsea are enjoying a flying start with 3 consecutive wins in all competitions (scoring 9 goals, conceding 0). In the Premier League, no team has accumulated more points than "The Blues" (25) since the beginning of May (25 points).

Remarkably, 10 of those points came from five games in the 2024/2025 season and helped them finish fifth in the table, just three points behind defending champions Man City.

However, what fans are most concerned about is Chelsea's contrasting form at home (1 draw, 1 loss) and away (3 wins). Notably, The Blues have only won 1/4 of their most recent home matches in the Premier League against Brighton, the opponent they will face tonight.

On the opposite side, Brighton is one of the 4 rare teams to maintain an unbeaten record after 5 rounds with Man City, Arsenal and Nottingham Forest.

However, the Seagulls will be without head coach Fabian Hurzeler when they visit Chelsea, as the 31-year-old was charged by the FA with "inappropriate conduct" during last week's draw with Nottingham Forest.

LIVE Chelsea vs Brighton

Chelsea seem to be starting to get into the swing of things. In midweek, they beat Barrow 5-0 in the League Cup. Before that, they also beat West Ham 3-0 away in round 5 of the Premier League. In the last 3 matches, Chelsea have won all, scoring 9 goals and conceding none. More broadly, in the last 5 matches in England, The Blues have won 4, only drawing once, and that was an unfortunate draw against Crystal Palace, when they missed many good chances. That said, it feels like Chelsea are starting to get into form.

There are many positive signs for coach Enzo Maresca's team. First, his strikers have played effectively. Jackson scored a double against West Ham with a rare delicate finish. Not only that, in the match against Barrow, Nkunku also had his first hat-trick in a Chelsea shirt. Before that, it was also Nkunku who scored the only goal to help The Blues beat Bournemouth 1-0 on September 15. Jackson and Nkunku's good form is making the race for the official No. 9 position at Stamford Bridge fierce and Maresca will benefit from this.

The next positive sign for Chelsea is that the team seems to have found a stable framework. The starting eleven for The Blues may have been decided by Maresca, although this is not an easy task for this team. The fact that Chelsea have many personnel options and their reserve squad also has many quality players is also another bright spot. In short, The Blues are full of confidence in welcoming Brighton.

Brighton, like last season, continued to make an impression in the early stages of this season. They are unbeaten in all 7 matches in all competitions in the new season. Brighton also held Arsenal to a 1-1 draw away from home and defeated MU 2-1. However, it is important to note that in the last 2 rounds, Brighton were held to draws by 2 weaker opponents, Nottingham and Ipswich. Long-term stability is still a problem for Brighton.

Chelsea have won all four of their last meetings with Brighton. This will be a tough game for the Blues, but they are likely to continue to win 3 points to maintain their momentum.
