After another eventful summer, the noise around Chelsea has quietened down in recent weeks. That is to the credit of Enzo Maresca, who has overseen back-to-back victories over Bournemouth and West Ham to lift Chelsea up to fifth place.
This meeting with Brighton will be a stern examination of their credentials, however. Albion were not at their best in a 2-2 draw with Nottingham Forest last time out, but they remain unbeaten this season. They are also capable of taking the ball away from Chelsea for long periods.
Goals should be on the cards in this one, not least because both managers have plenty of attacking options on their benches. Chelsea are the favorites but Brighton, who have drawn three league games in a row, are capable of getting something at Stamford Bridge.
