Brighton vs Chelsea – Team News

Chelsea face Brighton at the Amex Stadium in just under an hour, and the teams are in!

Chelsea put in a pretty dire performance against Man City in attack, but both Romelu Lukaku and Hakim Ziyech keep their places. Mason Mount is back in the team, but it’s unclear where he’s playing – has there been a formation shift?

It could be Azpi, Thiago Silva and Antonio Rudiger as a back 3, with Marcos Alonso and Callum Hudson-Odoi as wing backs, or alternatively it’s a back four in a 433, with CHO on the wing and Mount in midfield.

In any case, there’s also a change in the middle of the park, where Jorginho replaces Mateo Kovacic. Let’s hope this team can play a little more fluidly and openly than the side that lost to City on Saturday.

Here are the full team line-ups for Chelsea vs Brighton (kick off at 20:00 pm GMT)
