Brighton vs Chelsea Debrief: Early goals cost

30 OCT 2022


Following the Blues' 4-1 defeat by the Seagulls in Saturday's Premier
League meeting in Sussex, we take a look at the numbers and patterns from
the first loss of the Graham Potter era…

The bad start to the game, with goals conceded in the fifth and the 14th
minutes, inevitably made it very difficult for Chelsea to then take
something from the match.


It is the first time this season we conceded more than once in the first
quarter-of-an-hour and only in the defeat at Dinamo Zagreb and the away
game against Crystal Palace, when we recovered to win 2-1, had a goal gone
in during that opening period.


Brighton, adopting a 4-2-3-1 shape and 3-0 up by the interval, had more of
the ball in the first half, 53 per cent of the possession, and more
shots – nine to Chelsea's six. Graham Potter speaking after the game
noted that both sides had a similar number of touches inside the box
during the first half but that Brighton had done better at making
something from those – and all nine of the efforts on goal from the
Seagulls were from inside the penalty area. Chelsea had four.


Although both sides had four efforts on target before the break, our 'big
chances' count was zero whereas Brighton's was two, one of which was
taken.


For the first half, the Blues set up with Christian Pulisic and Raheem
Sterling as the wider players, as had been the case in the previous game,
the win away in Salzburg. The average position map across the whole game
shows there was a narrowness to Chelsea's attack on Saturday.

Pulisic is no.10. Sterling no.17


For the second half, although the only personnel change at half-time was
the one enforced by Kepa's injury, Ruben Loftus-Cheek went to right-back
with Marc Cucurella as a left-back.


From that position, Loftus-Cheek was able to carry out a ball-carrying
role before Conor Gallagher crossed for Kai Havertz to head the Chelsea
goal. Ruben was also the game's most fouled player with five infringements
against him.

Loftus-Cheek is no.12, Gallagher no.23 and Havertz no.29


== Second period improvement ==


In the second half as the Blues went in search of more goals, the
possession tilted 70-30 in our favour and there was a more balanced five
attempts at goal from inside the box to Brighton's six, the Seagulls
catching us out at the end to score their fourth and match us for goals in
the second half. We reduced Brighton down to four crosses after half-time
following 13 before it.

The xG totals from our loss at Brighton


Looking at the xG rating across the match, Brighton overachieved in
scoring four goals, helped by two own goals by the visitors.


Brighton won more tackles (18 to 8) and dispossessed their opponents more
often (8 to 5) but we won more aerial contests (10 to 8). Pulisic
contributed the most towards that count with three and he won two tackles,
matched by Trevoh Chalobah.


== Individual totals ==


Leading the way for Chelsea shots was Havertz, his four (two on target)
being two fewer than game-high Leandro Trossard, scorer of Brighton's
first goal.


Mateo Kovacic was the player from both sides with most touches of the
ball – 78 and the most passes, 64. Thiago Silva blocked five Brighton
shots, twice on the line.

Kovacic had 78 touches, the most on the pitch


The result is Brighton's first win over Chelsea in 15 league meetings,
following four draws in the previous five.


It means Potter's unbeaten start in charge of Chelsea ends at nine matches
(six of them won). It is the joint-best beginning by an Englishman at the
helm.

Hoddle: 'Matthew will be sitting up there looking down now and

loving Chelsea being winners. He'll just love Chelsea winning.'
