Chelsea make an immediate return to the south coast tonight when they face Brighton for the second weekend on the trot.
The Seagulls won their FA Cup fourth-round meeting last Saturday 2-1 with strikes from Georginio Rutter and Kaoru Mitoma after they fell behind early to a Bart Verbruggen own goal.
It was a good bounce back from Fabian Hurzeler’s men following their 7-0 thrashing at Nottingham Forest the week before.
Fourth-placed Chelsea have not won away in the Premier League since a 4-3 success at Spurs on December 8.
