The last time Chelsea lost five consecutive league games without scoring was 1912, when the Titanic sank.

Their season under Liam Rosenior is heading the same way, but it could still be salvaged despite their rotten form.

After losing four in a row, a top-five finish looks unlikely now - but sixth place would get them in the Champions League if Aston Villa finish in the top five and win the Europa League.

They are in the FA Cup semi-finals this weekend, too. Rosenior says he feels "100% support" from the club's owners but you can't get away from the fact there are lots of doubts about his future.

This is a huge end to the season for them and there is unrest everywhere - the fans protested about the owners before their defeat by Manchester United on Saturday, because they do not want a youth-development model - they want to be competing again, and winning things.

So they are under pressure and Brighton have their sights set on the top six too - they will go above Chelsea if they win this game, and with three wins and a draw from their past four matches, they are on a much better run.

The Seagulls beat them at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season, with a couple of late goals from Danny Welbeck after Chelsea's Trevoh Chalobah was sent off.

I have just got a feeling it could be a similar story this time and Brighton are definitely going to get something.

It is hard to make a case for Rosenior's side to win it, other than to think that they have got so much quality in their team that they are going to improve and break this cycle eventually.

I think Chelsea will score this time, but I do not see them keeping a clean sheet.
