Chelsea have dropped an early team news hint ahead of their clash with Brighton. The Blues are in action on Saturday at Stamford Bridge as they welcome Roberto De Zerbi's overperforming Seagulls to west London.
It was the reverse fixture that started the downfall of Graham Potter as form massively dropped over the course of five months, leaving the side 11th in the table. Meanwhile, Brighton and De Zerbi flourished under new management and are still making a push to finish in the top four.
It is in stark contrast to Chelsea, whose attention is on the Champions League quarter-final second-leg tie with Real Madrid on Tuesday, though the 2-0 deficit makes it an unlikely miracle. Outside of that, there is very little to play for other than personal pride for the Blues.
