Brighton vs Chelsea Prediction & Betting Tips (15 May)

Less to its advantage compared to the previous year, Brighton is now in 10th place in the Premier League and will be too close to win a European folding seat. The Seagulls gave up in the final stretch of the championship, as evidenced by the only success acquired during the last 8 days. After going 6 games without a win, 2 draws and 4 defeats, they managed to dominate Aston Villa 1-0. Last weekend, Brighton took a point at Newcastle 1-1. After another disappointing exercise, Chelsea still found themselves in a position to secure European qualification.

The London team is currently 7th in the Premier League and has the same number of points as 6th and 3 points ahead of 8th. Defeated only once in the last 13 days, the Blues found the right fuel late. With confidence, they won their last 3 league matches played against Tottenham 2-0, West Ham 5-0 and Nottingham Forest 2-3.

Several elements are missing for Brighton. This is the case of the important wingers Mitoma (3 goals and 4 assists in PL) and March (3 goals in 7 PL games), the interesting full-backs Hinshelwood and Estupinan and the promising striker Ferguson (6 goals in PL), all injured . Also absent last weekend, the very influential Joao Pedro (9 goals in PL), the senior defender van Hecke and the veteran Milner are, for their part, uncertain. In the offensive area, the restless Buonanotte, Enciso and Adingra (6 goals in PL) could take their place. Missing from Chelsea are defenders Fofana and Chilwell as well as midfielders Enzo Fernandez, Lavia and Chukwuemeka, all on the flank.

In addition, the goalkeeper-turned-replacement Sanchez is announced as doubtful. The last day, however, was marked by the return to the field of the essential full-back Reece James. He made a good start as did the attackers Sterling and Nkunku. Offensive captains Palmer (21 goals and 10 assists in PL) and Jackson (14 goals and 5 assists in PL) are available.
