Chelsea fans were calling for Maurizio Sarri’s head on Sunday, but we think the under-pressure Italian will end up with two victories within four days.
The Blues were losing at Cardiff when their supporters chanted “We want Sarri out”, but a clearly offside Cesar Azpilicueta goal and Ruben Loftus-Cheek’s winner turned it around.
That result may have merely papered over the cracks, yet Chelsea are still bang there with every chance of finishing third in the Premier League table and winning the Europa League.
Sarri’s fate is sure to depend on what happens in the next two months, but he can fully expect to see his side triumph again on Wednesday against a Brighton team for whom it is very difficult to make a case.
The Seagulls have the worst possible record at Stamford Bridge (see stats above) and a bad one against Chelsea generally, they are not yet safe from relegation after Saturday’s defeat at home to Southampton and have the distraction of an FA Cup semi-final at the weekend.
Chris Hughton’s side had a couple of good wins at the start of March, but they needed a penalty shootout to get past Millwall in the FA Cup and Manchester City will hardly be quaking at the prospect of facing them at Wembley.
Neither will Chelsea before that and even though Sarri’s men have been decidedly hit and miss since December, this is expected to be a routine success for them.
