The Blues have dropped down to fifth, a point behind West Ham United, but returned to winning ways in the league with a 4-1 win at Crystal Palace. The result followed a shock 5-2 loss at home to West Brom. 
 
"Everything was bad against West Brom. The result was horrible but the stats were not as bad," said Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel following their win at Selhurst Park. 

“Today [against Palace] we were very hungry, full of confidence and wanted to play a very aggressive game in terms of high recoveries. We were totally focused. It was good with the attitude today.
“It’s a part of our DNA to be aggressive and should be. We showed that today."
 
Brighton are winless in two matches following a 0-0 draw at home to Everton on Monday evening. The Seagulls sit seven points above the relegation zone.

Goals from Jorginho, Reece James and Kurt Zouma led Chelsea to a 3-1 win at Amex Stadium in the reverse fixture earlier this season. Leandro Trossard found the back of the net for Brighton.
