**Chelsea continued their winning Premier League start under [Xabi Alonso](https://readchelsea.com/2026/08/30/chelsea-fc-news-now-xabi-alonso-ultimatum/) with a dramatic 4-3 victory over [Brighton](https://readchelsea.com/tag/brighton/) at Stamford Bridge.**

The Blues produced a devastating opening half-hour, with Romeo Lavia scoring after four minutes before Pedro Neto doubled the advantage just 10 minutes later.

Joao Pedro then struck against his former club to make it 3-0 after 32 minutes, seemingly putting Chelsea in complete control. Chelsea’s full 4-3 Brighton match report details how quickly the contest then changed.
