Chelsea are looking to claim a first win in the Premier League in three games when they face Brighton & Hove Albion.
Enzo Maresca’s side return home to west London after a run of four consecutive matches away from home in all competitions.
It was mixed fortunes for the Blues on the road. They started out with a draw to Brentford in the league, before losing to Bayern Munich in the Champions League and then Manchester United as they returned to domestic action. Despite struggling in the first-half, Chelsea secured a spot in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on Tuesday night with a 2-1 win over Lincoln City.
Chelsea are currently without Levi Colwill, Benoit Badiashile, Romeo Lavia, Dario Essugo and Liam Delap, while Cole Palmer was forced off with a groin problem against Man United last weekend.
Robert Sanchez is available and will return in goal for Chelsea following his dismissal in the 2-1 defeat to Man United.
Joao Pedro will face his former club for the first time after leaving the Seagulls in the summer, which saw him make an instant impact to help Chelsea win the Club World Cup.
Alejandro Garnacho and Facundo Buonanotte will be pushing to make their first home appearances since joining the Blues following a stretch of away appearances.
Meanwhile, Brighton have claimed just five points from their opening five league matches this term, with Fabian Hurzeler’s side yet to pick up a victory on the road.
