After a week of great cup success, Chelsea turn their attention back to the Premier League on Tuesday when they host Brighton.
If Chelsea beat Brighton they will move up to third in the Premier League, with fourth placed West Ham having lost to Newcastle over the weekend and third placed Leicester not in action until Thursday. Having reached the Champions League semi-final last week and beaten Manchester City to make it through to the FA Cup final over the weekend, it could end up being a very special season at Chelsea.
It’s fair to say that this seemed an unlikely scenario before Frank Lampard was sacked and replaced by Thomas Tuchel. The German has made a real impact since being appointed, making a mockery of other coaches that might claim that they need the benefit of a pre-season to impose their ideas.
Tuchel has an almost fully fit squad to choose from on Tuesday. Only Andreas Christensen and Mateo Kovacic are currently injured.
Brighton close to safety
Brighton are close to securing their Premier League status for another season, but are still on the hunt for extra points.
The Seagulls currently have a decent cushion between themselves and the relegation zone, with 18th placed Fulham six points behind. This is one of two games in hand that Brighton have over Fulham and is arguably their toughest remaining fixture.
