Chelsea are on a terrible run of form and if they crash to another defeat away to Brighton tonight they will drop out of the Premier League's top six.
Saturday's 1-0 home loss to Manchester United was their sixth defeat in seven games in all competitions and it looks like the Blues will miss out on Champions League football next term.
Ninth-placed Brighton can move above them by banking three points tonight, and if Liam Rosenior's side don't get out of their nosedive they might miss out on any form of European football.
Brighton and Hove Albion vs Chelsea top betting tips
Brighton's form stands in stark contrast to Chelsea, with the Seagulls losing just one of their last seven.
A stoppage-time leveller pinched a point at Spurs on Saturday and Fabian Hurzeler's side will fancy their chances against another London giant in low spirits.
Brighton are 6/4 with Bet365 for the win and that might be worth a punt, but this is a game that could go either way so it's better going for player bets.
Although Chelsea lost again on Saturday, they did offer a threat going forward and Cole Palmer showed flashes of inspiration.
The playmaker is 5/4 with QuinnBet for a goal or assist tonight and I'm going to have a punt on that.
Southampton vs Bristol City
There's eight games in the EFL Championship tonight and Bristol City's trip to Southampton is the most intriguing.
Saints are now just a point off the automatic promotion pace after coming from behind at Swansea to claim an eighth successive win in all competitions.
Tonda Eckert's side haven't lost since mid-January and now host a Bristol City side who crashed to a 4-2 defeat at home to Norwich on Saturday.
The Robins have been playing better since Roy Hodgson took charge and are safe from danger but they're 6/1 outsiders for a win tonight.
Southampton's best price is a tiny 10/21 at Ladbrokes but backing them to be winning at half-time and full-time boosts the odds to 23/20 with 888Sport.
Saints won 12 corners at the weekend and have averaged 6.5 flag kicks across their last two at home. So I like the 42/41 on offer at Unibet for Southampton -2.5 in the corner handicap tonight.
Dunfermline Athletic vs St Johnstone
St Johnstone have the chance to win the SPFL Championship tonight and they will fancy their chances against Dunfermline Athletic.
The Pars are on a high after booking a place in the Scottish Cup Final by beating Falkirk at Hampden on Saturday.
But that match went all the way to penalties and Neil Lennon's side are in the middle of a brutal run of fixtures, playing Tuesday then Saturday for the last three weeks.
This is St Johnstone's first midweek fixture since February so they should be much fresher and it's no surprise to see them as 17/20 favourites tonight at BetMGM.
Dunfermline don't have a play-off spot tied up just yet so I'd imagine Neil Lennon will set up to frustrate the leaders.
The Pars kept free-scoring Falkirk at bay on Saturday so I'm going for a Saints win with under 4.5 goals at 21/20 with Ladbrokes.
