Hide AdHughton knows Brighton will have to be at their best to be in with a chance of getting a result at Chelsea and said: "There isn't anywhere we've gone this season that we've gone thinking we're going to lose and can we just keep it a tight game.
"We know we're reliant on playing well and the opposition playing poorly. Anything different to that and the top six teams are generally always going to win.
"We're reliant on other factors but mostly we'll just concentrate on ourselves and playing well enough to give ourselves a chance."
