LALLANA HEADS WIDE
Brighton could easily be five up here. Chelsea have no answer to their energy and organisation.

STERLING DISPOSSESSED AGAIN
The England forward is Chelsea's only option in attack but he just keeps losing the ball.
40'
BRIGHTON JUST KEEP COMING
Relentless waves of attack from the home side who are completely dominating this match.
39'
BRIGHTON CLOSE FROM THE CORNER
Trossard is caught flat-footed as the corner is flicked right to him. That could so easily have been Brighton's third.
38'
KEPA TAKES IT DEAD
Chelsea's keeper dives to claim a tricky Brighton cross but carries it out over the line for a corner.
37'
GREAT MOVE BRIGHTON
The home side play right through Chelsea's midfield with intricate passes before spinning it out wide into space.
Chelsea can't deal with this.
36'
STERLING GOES DOWN IN THE BOX
The Chelsea winger is surrounded and just sort of falls down. He seems to want a penalty but good luck explaining what it would have been for.
34'
CHELSEA BUILDING SOME PRESSURE
The visitors are finally pushing Brighton back with a bit of sustained possession. Can they make it count?
32'
HAVERTZ RUNS IT DEAD
Sterling finds Mount at the top of the box, but the Englishman's pass for Havertz has too much on it and the German can only race out of play with it.

BRIGHTON OFF THE POST
Brighton get into the Chelsea box again but can't get a clean shot away. Eventually Caicedo does shoot, but fires inches wide.
30'
KEPA CLEARS IN MIDFIELD AGAIN
Brighton have identified the space in this game and they're playing into it at every opportunity. The Chelsea backline are so far away from their goalkeeper.
28'
RELENTLESS BOOS FOR CUCURELLA
The Spanish left-back can't find an option for a throw-in so the home fans get plenty of time to communicate their feelings.
