Brighton vs Chelsea: Premier League match between Brighton and Chelsea is taking place on Wednesday, January 19 at 1:45 AM Nepali time.
Chelsea has no new injury concerns ahead of tonight’s match against Brighton on the south coast.
Thomas Tuchel is still missing long-term absentees Reece James and Trevoh Chalobah, and Andreas Christensen is still isolated after testing positive for Covid last week.
Ben Chilwell will miss the rest of the season due to anterior cruciate ligament damage.
Tuchel is expected to use the same defense that he used in the 1-0 loss to Manchester City last weekend, with Malang Sarr, Thiago Silva, and Antonio Rudiger forming a back three.
Chelsea is 13 points behind Premier League leaders Manchester City heading into the game, and Tuchel has expressed his displeasure with the number of injuries and Covid cases that have hampered his side’s title challenge.
“It’s a bit boring for me because it’s the same answer all the time,” he said, “but key players are key players because they have key behavior and key things in clubs and dressing rooms.”
