Brighton Vs Chelsea Highlights<\/h2>\n

Brighton breezed past Chelsea in a Valentine’s Day Massacre as a Yankuba Minteh double and a Kaoru Mitoma stunner\u00a0 ensured a 3-0 win for the Seagulls.<\/p>\n

It was a case of deja vu for both sides as Fabian Hurzeler’s men got the better of the Blues for a second successive week at the Amex.<\/p>\n

Japanese star Mitoma got the ball rolling when his exquisite first touch and finish opened the floodgates. Minteh ensured the points stayed on the South Coast when he netted a fine double.<\/p>\n

Hurzeler’s side are now up to 8th in the Premier League<\/a> after they firmly banished the memories of their Nottingham Forest horror show.<\/p>\n

As for Enzo Maresca’s side, they are still in the top four but a Man City or Newcastle victory on Saturday will change that. The sides actually meet each other at the Etihad on gameweek 25.<\/p>\n

As for the game tonight, Mitoma channelled his inner Dennis Bergkamp with a first touch befitting of the former Holland legend before surging through on goal and finishing with aplomb.<\/p>\n

Before the break, Minteh made the half-time team talk much tougher for Maresca when he gave the Blue and Whites a comfortable lead.<\/p>\n

The former Magpies man downed the West Londoners again in the second period when he combined with Danny Welbeck to put the game beyond doubt.<\/p>\n

Maresca’s goalkeeping situation will come into question again as Filip Jorgensen’s performance left a lot to be desired. Especially after his weak attempt to stop Mitoma’s opener.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, the Blues are still in a strong position but naturally, they’ll be glad not to face Hurzeler’s side this season. Scroll down for the Brighton vs Chelsea highlights.<\/p>\n
