Brighton & Hove Albion vs Chelsea
As Brighton's season kind of filtered out, the same cannot be said about Chelsea because they are now in the thick of fitting for European qualification. There has been some doom and gloom surrounding Chelsea, but they are the fourth-best performing team in 2024. They are six points behind fifth-placed Tottenham but could close it to three with one game left. THE RACE FOR EUROPE IS ON!

There is little to play for Brighton right now they sit bang in the middle of the Premier League table and can't go any higher if they win today. They had quite a struggling year after an eye-opening start to the campaign but have picked up four points in their last two games including a win against Aston Villa. They would love to continue this strong end to the season.
