Is Brighton vs Chelsea on TV? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Premier League fixture | OneFootball

Brighton face Chelsea in the Premier League tonight less than a week after the Seagulls earned a closely fought 2-1 victory over the Blues in the FA Cup.

Karou Mitoma struck in the second half to book Brighton a place in the fifth round of the cup on Saturday night, with Chelsea unable to build on an early own goal from Bert Verbruggen.

But both sides will need to put that result behind them quickly as Enzo Maresca’s side visit the south coast again, with the visitors looking to consolidate their place in the top four and take themselves five points ahead of Manchester City.

Brighton sit in 10th ahead of kick-off, but they’re still just about in the hunt for European football as they trail seventh-placed Bournemouth by six points.

Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the match.

When is Brighton vs Chelsea?

Brighton vs Chelsea is due to kick off at 8pm GMT on Friday, 14 February at the Amex Stadium.

Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler will be assessing the fitness of Lewis Dunk this week, after he was forced off in last week’s win with a back problem.

Pervis Estupinan and Mats Wiefer are in contention to return to the squad this week, though Solly March and Ferdi Kadioglu remain sidelined.

For Chelsea, striker Nicolas Jackson will spend six to eight weeks on the sidelines with a hamstring injury, while Enzo Maresca may decide to make changes in defence, with Levi Colwill likely to return to the starting line-up.

Wesley Fofana and Benoit Badiashile remain out, while Romeo Lavia is unlikely to return and the club are still assessing the extent of the injury suffered by Marc Guiu.

Brighton XI: Verbruggen; Veltman, van Hecke, Dunk, Lamptey; Baleba, Hinshelwood; Minteh, Rutter, Mitoma; Welbeck.

Chelsea XI: Sanchez; Gusto, Tosin, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Enzo; Neto, Palmer, Sancho; Nkunku.

Brighton win - 21/10

Draw - 5/2

Chelsea win - 6/5

As with last week’s match, expect it to be a close affair at the Amex, but with Enzo Maresca likely to name a stronger side than last time, Chelsea should at least get a draw on the south coast.
