Our Expert Predictions & Analysis on Brighton vs Chelsea

Brighton

The Seagulls have lost their last two matches in the English Championship, and in the last round the team lost to Nottingham Forest with an incredible score of 0:7. Therefore, the Brighton players will definitely not be in the best mood for the new match of the national Cup, but with a great desire to rehabilitate themselves before their fans. The team does not pretend to be high in the Premier League standings, so playing in the FA Cup may well become a priority for Brighton in the second half of the current season.

Chelsea

In the last round of the English Premier League, the Londoners beat West Ham in a strong-willed style and continue to fight for a place in the top 4 of the tournament table. Chelsea continues to play in several tournaments at the same time and will try to perform as well as possible in each, and in cup competitions, even fight for trophies. The head coach of the Blues, Enzo Maresca, has a fairly large selection of players at his disposal, which allows him to use active rotation. Probably, in the next cup match, the players who have not received much game practice before will take to the field.
