However, Stamford Bridge has been their fortress \u2013 Chelsea are unbeaten in their last <strong>12 home Premier League games (W9, D3)<\/strong>. Their defensive solidity stands out, with <strong>seven clean sheets in the previous nine home fixtures<\/strong>, including the last three in a row. Another shutout here would mark their first run of four home clean sheets since March 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Brighton\u2019s Early Struggles<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brighton\u2019s Premier League campaign hasn\u2019t gone to plan. Despite a 2-0 lead, they were held to a 2-2 draw against Tottenham in their last league outing, leaving them with only <strong>five points from five matches<\/strong> \u2013 their worst top-flight start in six years. A midweek 6-0 thrashing of Barnsley in the EFL Cup lifted spirits, but Fabian H\u00fcrzeler\u2019s men remain inconsistent, losing their last two away league games (Everton and Bournemouth).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Head-to-Head Record<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chelsea has won their last <strong>three competitive home matches<\/strong> against Brighton.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Goals are guaranteed<\/strong> when these sides clash, with at least three scored in <strong>seven of the last eight head-to-heads<\/strong>.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chelsea have scored in <strong>19 of their last 20 Premier League home games<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hot Stats and Key Streaks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Chelsea have won their last <strong>eight league matches when scoring first<\/strong>.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Both halves have produced goals in <strong>12 of Brighton\u2019s last 13 league games<\/strong>.<br><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Brighton have managed just <strong>one clean sheet in their last 17 Premier League matches<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/d4b8d46d31a4cd593ce8204abb934661f0ba2dfddd505df3837c5dc896cbb8c5-800-500.jpg\" alt=\"Chelsea vs Brighton: Prediction, Match Preview, and Betting Tips\" class=\"wp-image-12241\" style=\"width:969px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/d4b8d46d31a4cd593ce8204abb934661f0ba2dfddd505df3837c5dc896cbb8c5-800-500.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/d4b8d46d31a4cd593ce8204abb934661f0ba2dfddd505df3837c5dc896cbb8c5-800-500-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/d4b8d46d31a4cd593ce8204abb934661f0ba2dfddd505df3837c5dc896cbb8c5-800-500-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/d4b8d46d31a4cd593ce8204abb934661f0ba2dfddd505df3837c5dc896cbb8c5-800-500-150x94.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/d4b8d46d31a4cd593ce8204abb934661f0ba2dfddd505df3837c5dc896cbb8c5-800-500-696x435.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Players to Watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Marc Cucurella (Chelsea):<\/strong> Former Brighton defender has two goal contributions in his last seven appearances.
