Current form: Chelsea vs Brighton
Although Chelsea come into this game having secured a hard-fought 2-1 win over Cardiff, the Blues are still outside the top four. The victory wasn't without controversy, as many felt that the winning goal for Chelsea was offside, and now they naturally will need to pick up all three points over struggling Brighton as many Chelsea supporters still are calling for Maurizio Sarri to be sacked.
Brighton, meanwhile, suffered a major setback as they lost 1-0 to Southampton last weekend, which ended a two game winning streak for Chris Houghton's side. Although they remain five points clear of the drop zone, the visitors have a bad track record when it comes to taking on Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, as they have lost their last four away games and have yet to score a goal during that miserable run.
