Brighton have stepped into the European places after a 3-0 win against Chelsea, who succumbed to their fifth league loss in a row.

Goals from Ferdi Kadıoglu, Jack Hinshelwood and Danny Welbeck were enough for the Seagulls to pick up all three points and jump to sixth in the Premier League.

The Blues, who drop down to seventh, have endured a horrible run of form, scoring no goals in their last five losses.

Chelsea's priority turns to their FA Cup semi-final clash against Leeds United, a must-win for an under-pressure Liam Rosenior.
