Chelsea are on a run of five games without a win in all competitions, and a defeat could seriously see them become drawn into a stranger than life relegation battle with the teams below them.

The team can be boosted by the fact they can call on a few names that have been missing from Premier League action in recent months, but the feeling is they didn't come away from the Real Madrid game without any injuries.

Here's all the information you need ahead of tomorrow's game.

Team News:

Mason Mount will not start the game due to injury but he is expected to play a part in the game. N'Golo Kante came through the clash against Madrid unscathed so he is will likely start the game.

Thiago Silva is set for a return to Premier League action, but Kalidou Koulibaly will miss the game after limping off in the defeat to Madrid on Wednesday night. He has a muscle injury.

The big question is whether Edouard Mendy or Kepa Arrizabalaga will start, and Frank Lampard revealed in the embargoed section of his press conference today that will start the game.

Brighton:

Brighton are without Adam Lallana, Jakub Moder, Jeremy Sarmiento and Tariq Lamptey. They are looking to bounce back from a controversial defeat to try and solidify their challenge for top four.

All eyes on Stamford Bridge tomorrow, can Chelsea break their five game streak without a win?
