Brighton has proven to be a tough opponent at the Amex Stadium this season, losing just two of their 11 home matches in the Premier League. Their FA Cup victory over Chelsea was a much-needed morale boost after their humiliating 7-0 defeat at Nottingham Forest, and they will look to carry that momentum into the league encounter.Historically, Brighton has performed well against Chelsea at home, boasting a record of 2-1-1 in their last four meetings at the Amex. The Seagulls have also remained unbeaten in their last three home encounters against London-based teams, further strengthening their credentials ahead of Friday’s match.Chelsea's inconsistency away from home is a growing concern. Since their 3-1 victory over FC Astana in European competition, the Blues have failed to win any of their last five competitive away fixtures (0-2-3). Their poor away record includes a shock defeat to Ipswich, who currently sit second from bottom in the Premier League. Despite their struggles, Chelsea remains the slight favorite according to bookmakers, with odds of 2.30 for an away victory. However, given their recent performances, this assessment may be overly optimistic. Additionally, Chelsea's injury list remains extensive, with at least seven key players expected to miss Friday's match, potentially hampering their ability to turn things around. That's why I don't see Chelsea winning this

布莱顿本赛季在美国运通球场已经证明了他们是一个难以对付的对手，他们在英超11场主场比赛中只输了2场。他们在足总杯上战胜切尔西是在0 - 7惨败于诺丁汉森林后急需的士气提振，他们将把这种势头带到联赛中。历史上，布莱顿在主场对阵切尔西的比赛中表现出色，在美国运通球场的最近四次交锋中取得了2胜1负的战绩。海鸥队在最近三次主场对阵伦敦球队的比赛中保持不败，在周五的比赛前进一步加强了他们的实力。切尔西在客场表现的不稳定让人越来越担心。自从在欧战3-1战胜阿斯塔纳之后，蓝军在最近的5场客场比赛中一场也没赢过（0胜2负3负）。他们糟糕的客场战绩包括一场惨败给伊普斯维奇，后者目前在英超排名倒数第二。尽管处境艰难，但根据博彩公司的说法，切尔西仍然是最受欢迎的球队，客场获胜的赔率为2.30。然而，考虑到他们最近的表现，这种评估可能过于乐观。此外，切尔西的伤病名单仍然很庞大，至少有七名关键球员预计将缺席周五的比赛，这可能会阻碍他们扭转局面的能力。这就是为什么我不认为切尔西会赢
