Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi insists they're just a win away from igniting their season.

Brighton meet Chelsea and former manager Graham Potter on Saturday.

De Zerbi said, "[Joel] Veltman has some problems, [Adam] Lallana is okay.

"[Kaoru] Mitoma feels good and trained with us today and yesterday. I haven't decided the first eleven yet - I will decide tomorrow."

"We need one win to change this moment. This moment is not bad but when the results aren't good, you are sad.

"The quality of play and skills we've showed have been very good."

He also said: "It was great news to see Alexis sign a new contract. He is a big player. With Caicedo, they are a fantastic midfield. I'm lucky to have these midfielders."

"My team is able to be aggressive, press high always with courage and without problems. This is important for me. If you watched us against City, the defence from the front was fantastic."

"It's always fantastic to work at the Amex. I'm sorry for the moment because we only have one point from two games there.

"I hope to win in our stadium for me, our players and our fans. In Manchester they were fantastic."

"Chelsea are a fantastic team. Mount, Havertz, Jorginho, Thiago Silva - they have great players, it will be tough."
