Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca addressed player fitness concerns during his pre-Brighton press conference. Palmer will miss the next two to three weeks due to a thigh problem that requires rest rather than surgical intervention. The club hopes the midfielder recovers fully during the upcoming international break. Maresca emphasized careful management of Palmer's pain levels.

Defensive injuries continue to affect team selection. Toussaint faces several weeks away from action after sustaining a calf muscle tear. Fofana remains unavailable following a concussion suffered against Lincoln City. However, Lavia and Badiashile show signs of improvement and may feature soon.

Goalkeeper Sanchez returns from his recent suspension despite criticism. Maresca defended his keeper while acknowledging past errors against Manchester United. The Italian coach praised Sanchez's overall contribution and highlighted saves that prevented goals. The manager expressed confidence in the goalkeeper's future performances.
