English Premier League, 21st round. Two teams of quite different calibers meet. Brighton currently occupies 14th place in the standings with 23 points. Chelsea, on the other hand, is in 4th place with 35 points.
Brighton looks very average this season. The team has a negative goal difference and often plays inconsistently. They look somewhat better at home, where they have won 4 matches, drawn 3 times, and lost 3 times. They lost to Southampton, Leicester, and Sheffield United but managed to win against Tottenham. This once again shows how unstable Brighton's game is. Speaking of Chelsea, the team is very young this season, but that does not prevent them from achieving good results. This is especially true when Chelsea plays away, where the team looks even better than at home. They have won 7 matches and suffered 3 losses against Man City, Man Utd, and Everton. This shows that the team usually wins against weaker teams when playing away. Overall, this season Chelsea wins 86 percent of away matches when they are the favorites.
For this match, the teams have no new losses. March and Izquierdo will still not appear for Brighton, and Chelsea will be without Loftus-Cheek, van Ginkel, Alonso, and probably Pulisic. These absences should not significantly affect the match result. Another interesting fact is that Chelsea has won the last 5 meetings between the teams.
So, the English Premier League. Here we get quite a high coefficient for Chelsea's victory. We predict that this time Brighton will not be able to resist Chelsea, and the team with greater resources will win. Good luck!
