Friday's Brisbane Roar and Cologne are fine, but today we will take a look at the Premier League Chelsea game on Sunday, and as for the dismantling of the rest of the games on Sunday, I will still write it on McGiwen's football side. Pure experience sharing, everyone thinks what I wrote looks interesting, please like and support!
Chelsea's full-backs are short of personnel, and Brighton have a lot of injury problems
Chelsea played a hole in the last round, even if the opponent Magpies injury list is as long as a cloth, but Chelsea still could not get out of the away game, and even was abused by the remnants of the Magpies 4-1. Not only that, captain Reece James left the field in the last round with two yellows and one red, and this game needs to be suspended, while left fullback Cucurella will need to be suspended this round because of the accumulation of full yellow cards, and there is a headache in this round of full-backs.
At the pre-match press conference, Pochettino reluctantly said that it is difficult for any player to return to the squad after injury in this round. Chalobah Jr., Ben Chilwell, Chukwuemeka and Fofana are still recovering from injuries, Gusto has not yet returned to training, and Lavia and Nkunku, who are very close to returning, have not yet recovered to their best physical condition, and whether they can play depends on the results of the pre-match assessment. But even if Lavia and Nkunku can return this round, there will be no way to play as full-backs.
According to the British media, Pochettino's probability is to let Disasi and Colwill play fullback, and the younger brother and daughter-in-law who made low-level mistakes in the last round will continue to start, and Caicedo, who was inexplicably substituted in the last round, will return to the starting line-up this round. At this stage, Chelsea's attacking problems are not too big, but the quality of their defence is declining visibly. In this round, Disasi and Colwill are used to play fullbacks, and the side defense is estimated to be much better than in the previous round, but neither of them has the ability to insert assists in the back, and it is difficult to give enough offensive support to the frontcourt.
Brighton also have a lot of injury problems at present, the two main fullbacks Lamptey and Estupinan are recovering from injuries, Enciso, March, Webster, Welbeck, Fati will be absent due to injury, central defender Lewis Dunk, midfielder Dahoud needs to be suspended for this game, and this round is also a set of remnants, and the Seagulls are not as solid as Chelsea, and they also went to Greece in midweek to play a Europa League group stage, which is worse than Chelsea.
But Brighton is in good shape!Brighton are unbeaten in seven games in the Premier League and Europa League recently (four wins, three draws), and like the Magpies, even if it's just a set of squads, and no one can even rotate them, they still play well. Moreover, the most important in the midfield, Gross, Pedro, Mikasa, and Evan Ferguson, the fulcrum of attack, are all there, so even if the Seagulls' defense is likely to have problems due to injury attrition, De Zerbi can completely replace defense with attack and use a more aggressive style of play to try to score points at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea started the game with a 0.5 difficulty, which was in line with the third round of the EFL Cup against the Vills. Considering that Chelsea's current situation is much better than in the EFL Cup, and Brighton's injury problem is very serious, coupled with the bonus of winning in the cup, Chelsea should give it to 0.75 in one step, rather than starting at 0.5 and then rising to 0.75. Therefore, in this remnant PK, Chelsea has little chance of winning all three points, and this Lao Mai is undefeated in Brighton.
