Chelsea will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they head to Brighton & Hove Albion on Tuesday night.

Thomas Tuchel's side suffered a 1-0 defeat to Manchester City in the league on Saturday, which has left them 13 points behind the leaders on the same number of games (22).

The Blues have now only won one of their last six league matches during a disappointing run of form, which has all but ended their hopes of winning the title this season.
