High Stakes for Both Teams

For Chelsea, the FA Cup represents more than just another trophy—it’s a chance to regain confidence and salvage a season that’s teetering on the brink of disappointment. With Premier League ambitions fading, lifting the FA Cup could offer a silver lining for Maresca’s debut season at Stamford Bridge.

Brighton, meanwhile, will view this fixture as an opportunity to build on their recent successes and continue their rise in English football. De Zerbi’s team have shown they can mix it with the best, and knocking out a side like Chelsea would further cement their growing reputation.

With both teams having plenty to prove, tonight’s encounter at the Amex is set to be a fascinating battle. Chelsea’s ability to overcome their away-day struggles and Brighton’s hunger to cause an upset will define this FA Cup tie.
