Brighton v Chelsea team news: Lamptey + Mount return, Trossard + Maupay subs

Double Gameweek 22 continues at the Amex Stadium this evening, with Brighton and Hove Albion hosting Chelsea at 20:00 GMT.

Tariq Lamptey was only a substitute at the weekend because of a minor groin issue but is fit enough to start against his former club.

Steven Alzate and Danny Welbeck also come into the starting XI, with Adam Lallana, Leandro Trossard and Neal Maupay dropping out. The latter two, however, are substitutes.

Elsewhere, Lewis Dunk and Shane Duffy remain out.

As for Chelsea, Thomas Tuchel makes three changes from the 1-0 loss at Manchester City, with Jorginho, Mason Mount and Callum Hudson-Odoi replacing Malang Sarr, Mateo Kovacic and Christian Pulisic, all of whom drop to the bench.

Andreas Christensen, who has Covid, misses out, as well as Trevoh Chalobah, Ben Chilwell and Reece James.

    A good Chelsea goal??

      Ish.

      Deflection?

      Near post.

        Big inside deflection.

        Was going wide but likely to stand.

        1. TheTinman
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          Tiny deflection

            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 8 Years
            2 years, 2 months ago

            A crucial one

        Nothing that Sanchez couldn't have saved

          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 8 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          True

    2. TheTinman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Not really

        2 years, 2 months ago

        Outside the box i guess.

    Now we know why Ziyech keeps starting games...

  5. @persecuted_by_mods

      Why is ziyech playing

        Goals

      The worst player on the pitch scores.

      You just can't write this script 😆

      Christ, that’s annoying..

    • Walter White (WW)

      Typical Potter ball lol

    • Danno - Emre Canada

    • how now brown cow

      sanchez should be saving that

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Not sure if it changed direction

    • Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Awful goalkeeper

    • DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Good strike from Ziyech but Sanchez will be disappointed.

    • Sun Jihai
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Ziyech G
      Kante A

      1. Walter White (WW)
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Someone somewhere must have captained Ziyech

    • Union_Jacks
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Sanchez is a really bad keeper.

      3 shots on target conceded this dgw and conceded 2 goals.

    • TheTinman
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Surely Alonso vs Lamptey at the back post is a huge height mismatch Chelsea need to exploit

    • HonestBlatter
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Alonso missed YC

    • Top Lad Dakes.
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Oh wonderful, probably gonna be a 2pt DGW or less from yet another player in Lamptey then…

    • Paqueta Rice
      • 3 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Any chance Conte doesn’t risk Reguillon?

      1. Top Lad Dakes.
        • 7 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Doesn’t risk??

        1. Paqueta Rice
          • 3 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          Returning from injury isn’t he?

      2. FourLokoLeipzig
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Evening Standard article today says he misses out. I’ll cling to that until I can’t

    • Jimmers
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Ziyech didn't look too happy considering he had just scored a goal. Another unhappy Chelsea player

      1. Baps hunter
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Was about to post about that

      2. TheTinman
        • 8 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Because it was such a bad hit he knew he didn't deserve it. Was going for top bins

      3. NorCal Villan
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Maybe he is a proponent of the “act like you’ve been there” celebration

    • DycheDycheBaby
      • 8 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Another pathetic challenge from Alonso. Yellow card coming soon....

    • sovietrockettes
      • 5 Years

      Help me stop the bleeding, I’ve gone from 3K to 25k in 3 GWs………who is a better captain choice for GW23?

      A) Ronaldo
      B) Raphinha
      C) TAA

      1. Grand Thibauto
        • 9 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Taa or whoever has double

      2. The Mighty Hippo
        • 7 Years

        B

    • Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Still think Ziyech is overrated

      1. Walter White (WW)
        • 2 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        I think he will play better under a manager that plays him more often & also the right tactics

    • Thanos
      • 2 Years
      2 years, 2 months ago

      Kaku has been a failed punt 🙁

      1. The Ilfordian

        • 6 Years
        2 years, 2 months ago

        Are you Harry Maguire?

        1. Thanos
          • 2 Years

          My head is normal sized. So no!

            Haha, just checking

            1. Thanos
              • 2 Years
              2 years, 2 months ago

              Fair question tbh. I bought Kaku and captained him for a hit! So I may well be a slab head 😛

        2. NorCal Villan
          • 2 Years
          2 years, 2 months ago

          There would be many misspellings if it was Maguire
