Reason for Chelsea vs Brighton Predictions
Chelsea is now winless in four matches, and the appointment of Frank Lampard for a second spell in charge has raised a few eyebrows. The Chelsea managerial merry-go-round has settled on Frank Lampard. The Blues’ legend is taking control for a second time on an interim basis. There was no new manager bounce on display here, though, Lampard’s side was lackluster in front of the goal and outplayed in all areas of the pitch. Matheus Nunes scored the only goal of the game for Chelsea’s another defeat. A fierce strike from a tight angle flew past goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga’s right hand. Lampard had restored Conor Gallagher and Raheem Sterling to the starting line-up, but neither man made much impact on the game. Ziyech plays fantastically and creates a lot of problems for the opponent’s defense. Many clubs are ready to give a fortune for the arrival of this guy. Enzo Fernandez is one of the best midfielders in the world, all praise for him. Thiago Silva (Ligament Injury), Mason Mount (bruised pelvis), and Armando Broja (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) will not be able to play for Chelsea coach Frank Lampard.
Brighton suffered their first loss in six matches away at Tottenham in a game mired with controversy – leading to an apology being issued to Brighton from the Referees Association. Brighton can feel hard done by to come away from their game against Tottenham without even a point. There were three huge decisions made by VAR in the game, and only one of them was correct – a handball given against Alexis Mac Allister leading to a goal. Brighton had another wrongly ruled out for the same offense, and a clear penalty was not given late. By the time the penalty incident occurred, neither side had a manager in the dugout following a fracas. Brighton was by far the better side in this match, and the post-game apologies from officials will be of little comfort. Alexis Mac Allister plays well in the middle of the park, and he does not allow the opponent much action. Kaoru Mitoma is a great player, he creates a lot of problems for his opponents, and the greatest virtue of this guy is speed. Brighton boss Roberto De Zerbi has not got a full squad to pick from. Jakub Moder (Cruciate Ligament Rupture) and Jeremy Sarmiento (Metatarsal Fracture) will not be playing here.
Conclusion
There are no favorites in this match, and we won’t be surprised if this clash could end in a draw.
We can expect a big fight between these two teams, and both of them should be able to score. One thing is for sure – football fans should enjoy this game.
