Chelsea vs Brighton 23.07.2023

Chelsea are getting ready to start life under new coach Mauricio Pochettino after a disastrous showing last season that saw them finish 12th in the league. Many players have since been sold and new signings are expected even though things seem to be moving slowly on that front. For this match, Pochettino will have to make do with some regulars and a few youth team members.

Brighton had an excellent season in which they finished 6th and qualified for Europe for the first time in their history. As they prepare for the new season, they are trying to hold on to their stars like Moises Caicedo who is desperately wanted by Chelsea. Coach Roberto De Zerbi will be happy to start pre-season with all his top stars still in the club.

This being a friendly game early in pre-season, not much of a contest is expected and we are likely to see few goals in the match as the coaches focus on getting players back to fitness. For this reason, we go for Under 2.5 goals as our main tip.
