Brighton vs Chelsea - LIVE!

Graham Potter this afternoon returns to the Amex Stadium for the first time since leaving for the Blues in September, looking to extend his unbeaten start as manager against a Seagulls side who have struggled since his departure.

It’s been an eventful start to life with the Blues for the boss, who has had to negotiate the likes of match postponements, injuries to key players and a number of different formations. He can take them into third in the Premier League with victory at his old stomping ground.

His replacement at Brighton, Roberto de Zerbi, has not had the same impact and is still looking for his first win after five games in charge, three of them defeats. He would love a first, statement, victory this afternoon. Follow the game LIVE below with our dedicated match blog, featuring expert insight and analysis from Chelsea correspondent Nizaar Kinsella at the Amex Stadium.

Chelsea have switched formation to a 4-3-3 with Ruben Loftus-Cheek now playing at right back.

In true Graham Potter fashion away at Brighton, he has switched formation with a player in a foreign position. After a bright start to the half, it just might work.

Roberto De Zerbi has done an absolute job on Graham Potter's new Chelsea system, leaving a blueprint of how to exploit their makeshift wing-backs.

It has been a perfect storm for Chelsea who are unable to defend in this structure against a quality team.

Potter needs to use some of their five available substitutes as soon as possible.
