((LIVE TV!)) Chelsea vs Brighton Hove Albion live stream 15 April 2023
They will be very keen to get back to winning ways this weekend having not lost back-to-back Premier League games since October. Another win over Chelsea would certainly go a long way in doing that. The Seagulls were irresistible during their 4-1 win at the AMEX Stadium - a success that represented their first victory over the Blues since 1933.

Share your thoughts in the comments below On the injury front, the Blues are set to be without summer signing Kalidou Koulibaly. The Senegalese defender was withdrawn during his side’s defeat in Spain after a difficult outing and joins Carney Chukwuemeka and Armando Broja on the sidelines.
If the Blues fall to another defeat, it will already be their third run of three consecutive defeats in all competitions this season. Given their opponents, that could be a realistic possibility. Roberto De Zerbi has made a big impact since replacing ex-Chelsea boss Graham Potter on the south coast. Despite their 2-1 defeat to Tottenham last time out, the Seagulls are still sitting pretty in seventh position and just seven points behind Spurs with two games in-hand.
The former Blues midfield icon has overseen two matches as interim boss since his return - both of which ending in defeat. Lampard endured a nightmare start to his second stint at the helm with a 1-0 loss to relegation candidates Wolves. Another defeat to Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu has left them staring down the barrel of a Champions League exit and potentially a season without European football in any form next term.
Desperation is a stinky cologne. Lampard’s looking for a few good men.

If that stretches too long, we might have even seen the last of him for this season.
They are the fourth highest scoring team in the league, and that’s without having a true recognized top scorer among their number: Solly March, Kaoru Mitoma, Pascal Gross, and Alexis Mac Allister have exactly two-thirds of their goals, with an almost even distribution of 7, 7, 6, and 8 each, respectively. Teenage striker Evan Ferguson has chipped in with 4 goals as well, all coming in the last couple months. Brighton do have a few ongoing injury issues, with Adam Lallana, Tariq Lamptey, Jeremy Sarmiento, and Jakub Moder still out.

Everyone else other than Armando Broja should be available, with Lampard already hinting at significant rotation from midweek (and ahead of the second leg against Real on Tuesday). Chelsea have practically nothing tangible left to fight for in the league with eight games still to go: we are 12 points clear of relegation and 13 points behind fifth-place Tottenham. Even finishing in the top half of the table seems like a tall order — we haven’t finished in the bottom half since 1996, when we had a six-season run of being either 11th or 14th. And then we signed Ruud Gullit and the rest, as they say, is history of the we ain’t got none kind.

The wheels suddenly came off, all at once. We’ve won just six games since, in 24 (twenty. four. ) tries in all competitions. It’s five without a win currently, with three defeats, and four straight games without a goal. Could the reverse fixture against Brighton snap us out of this malaise? Football loves a pattern. Design loves a mirror.

Graham Potter went into that game unbeaten (! ) as Chelsea boss, with six wins and three draws in his first nine games. And then, we got smacked around to the tune of 4-1, and never recovered.
