There is little doubt Chelsea have progressed since, however.
They haven’t lost since and while there will be tougher tests to come, a second-string side thumped Barrow 5-0 in the Carabao Cup earlier this week.
Having romped to a 3-0 win over West Ham in their last League outing, confidence should indeed be high.
Date, kick-off time and venue
Chelsea vs Brighton is scheduled for a 3pm BST kick-off time today, Saturday, September 28, 2024.

Chelsea vs Brighton team news
Chelsea had Malo Gusto back against Barrow in good news for Maresca, given fellow right-back Reece James is injured.
The Chelsea boss has confirmed that Romeo Lavia is available to feature, with a decision to be made on whether he can start. Nicolas Jackson, Cole Palmer, Jadon Sancho, Noni Madueke and former Brighton star Moises Caicedo are all pushing to return.
The Seagulls are without James Milner, Matt O’Riley and Solly March. Joao Pedro will miss the game after sustaining a knock during last weekend’s draw with Nottingham Forest.
Chelsea vs Brighton prediction
It’s a big test of Chelsea’s progress, given Brighton are unbeaten thus far. The Seagulls would bite your hand off for a point now, but are capable of more.
Enzo Maresca knows keeping a clean sheet will be key in a fixture which has usually thrown up a few goals.
Draw, 1-1.
