Brighton vs Chelsea predictions: Brighton vs Chelsea team news

Graham Potter's Brighton finished last season in 15th place on the Premier League table but there is optimism that the Seagulls can end this campaign in the top 10. Along with signing Joel Veltman and Adam Lallana this summer, Lewis Dunk and Ben White have signed long-term contracts at the club. Brighton have no injury concerns for their season opener against Chelsea and could field their strongest starting line-up against the Blues.

  • Predicted starting line-up for Brighton: Ryan; Veltman, White, Dunk, Burn; Propper, Bissouma; Gross, Lallana, Trossard; Maupay.

Chelsea finished last season in fourth place on the Premier League table and have made a host of additions to their squad this season in a bid to challenge Man City and Liverpool for the title. Mateo Kovacic is serving a suspension and will miss the game while Hakim Ziyech, Ben Chilwell and Thiago Silva are sidelined for the clash against Brighton. However, the Chelsea faithful will be eager to see Timo Werner and Kai Havertz in action, with both Germans likely to start.
