Chelsea has spent most of the second half of the season attempting to dig out of the hole it started the year with in the EPL soccer standings. The Blues have climbed to seventh place and could put some pressure on the two teams above them by winning their last two matches. While it won’t improve the fanbase, which has greater ambitions for Chelsea, it would be a nice note to end the season on.
On the other side, the Seagulls will be disappointed with how this season went after they played well last year. Brighton is in the middle of the table and has produced consistently mixed results this season. The Seagulls have a 12-12-12 (win-draw-loss) record heading into the final two matches.
