The Chelsea team failed to record a single win in the month of September. The last one was at the end of August when they eliminated Wimbledon in the League Cup. It was the fourth-division team that took the lead first at Stamford Bridge, but the Blues turned it around to 2-1. Chukwunonso Madueke made it 1-1 after a precisely executed penalty, while the second goal was the work of Enzo Fernandez. In the 1/16-finals Chelsea will face a tough Brighton, for whom this will be the first match in the competition, in this and edition.
Chelsea vs Brighton Prediction
Since the start of the season, apart from the win over Wimbledon, Chelsea have only one more, which was a 3-1 win over West Ham. I think the Blues will suffer another disappointment after the upcoming clash against Brighton. “The Seagulls have not lost to the capital team in their last five battles. In the last edition of the Premier League, Brighton achieved two victories over Chelsea after 4-1 at the Amex and 2-1 in London. The upcoming visitors are definitely in super form and I expect them to progress to the tournament’s eighth-finals.
