    There it is!

    It's a rocket of a header from Adam Webster but he's completely unmarked.

    He runs around the back of the pack in the six-yard area, isn't picked up and when the corner comes in, he just arrows it into the net.

    No stopping that.

    They have had a few in this half though!

    It's pulled back to Alexis Mac Allister in the box. His shot is heavily deflected and almost sneaks inside the post.

    Kepa just about claws it away.

    Brighton failed to land a shot on target in the first half of a Premier League game for only the third time this season and first since October vs Arsenal.

    Romelu Lukaku is given one to chase by Hakim Ziyech but Dan Burn wins it... Just!

    We are making hard work of this. The problem is our strikers are not good enough. End of. We don't have the quality of a Salah. Or even a Mane.

    Brighton have a corner over on the right but Romelu Lukaku wins the defensive header.

    Tariq Lamptey collects it in the middle, it's flicked on towards Danny Welbeck in the box but Kepa comes out quickly and just about gathers it in.

    Dale Humphries: If Brighton were more clinical they could be pushing top four easy!! Something like one defeat in 10/11, the rest draws. Potter is doing magic!!

    Better from Chelsea.

    It's fizzed into Romelu Lukaku's feet, he lays it off to Jorginho and he slips in Hakim Ziyech.

    He's probably offside but it races away from him anyway and Robert Sanchez slides out to collect.

    Really good stuff this. Brighton break, it's switched over to the right, Tariq Lamptey plays a one-two with Jakub Moder and beats Marcos Alonso.

    The cut-back is put behind for a corner by, guess who? Thiago Silva.

    Adam Webster goes for the corner delivery but it bounces off his chest and into Kepa's arms.

    Another good run from Danny Welbeck in behind. It comes to him, the angle is too tight to shoot and there's nobody with him.

    Welbeck tries to cut inside but Thiago Silva mops up. The Chelsea defender is having a good game.

    Really good start for Brighton. Danny Welbeck smashes it wide and over from eight yards. Good early opportunity but he must hit the target.

    Neal Maupay and Leandro Trossard are waiting on the Brighton bench still remember...

    Brighton 0-1 Chelsea

    A Chelsea corner is half-cleared but only as far as Hakim Ziyech on the edge of the box.

    He seems to have ages to shoot and he waits for it to drop on his left foot but there's too many bodies in the way.

    People bashing on Ziyech yet he often comes up with a goal or assist in important moments. Hudson-Odoi is the issue in this team. Doesn't know when to run in behind or come short. Poor touches and even worse finishing. Get Havertz or Pulisic on instead.

    From Max in London

    Kaustub Joshi: Callum Hudson-Odoi’s end product is easily the worst amongst all the already misfiring Chelsea attackers. Simply awful, and not just today, have seen the same so many times.

  16. CLOSE!published at 46 mins

    Brighton 0-1 Chelsea

    What a chance!

    Alexis Mac Allister finds Pascal Gross, who slips in Danny Welbeck. He's a few yards out, though the angle is tight but he skews it wide of the left post. Has to hit the target!

    Off we go again. Can Brighton respond? We know they like to score late...

    KevB: It would be interesting to see what Potter could create with a similar resource (to Chelsea).

    AVFCPearson: Brighton are still in this, Chelsea don't look 100% if they carry on they'll fall further behind in the title race.

    Countless times this season Chelsea have been the superior team and not got their rewards.

    It’s rare for them to be the inferior side and find themselves ahead.
