Brighton vs Chelsea – Team News

Chelsea face Brighton at Stamford Bridge in just under an hour, and the teams are now in!

As it has been every week since Reece James’ injury, it’s a bit of a guessing game about who plays where.

Thiago Silva and Trevoh Chalobah look to be playing at centre back, with Marc Cucurella at left back.

Right back is anyone’s guess – Christian Pulisic? Ruben Loftus-Cheek?

In the middle, Mateo Kovacic is fit to start with Conor Gallagher. Up front, it’s Kai Havertz supported by Raheem Sterling and Mason Mount in a 3 that we could start to see more of if Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang continues to struggle to get involved.

We also note that there’s a place on the bench for Omari Hutchinson, who has been tearing it up in the youth teams in recent weeks.

Here are the full team line-ups for Brighton vs Chelsea (kick off at 15:00 pm GMT)
