The Seagulls, meanwhile, have lost three of their four competitive games this season, and they will be hoping to avoid a third straight defeat.
Match preview
After losing 4-0 to Arsenal on the opening weekend of the season, Brighton beat Reading 2-1 to claim their first win of the season.
Rather than building upon their victory over the Royals, Brighton have gone on to lose consecutive games in all competitions.
A 3-2 defeat to Championship side Birmingham City in the League Cup was followed by a disappointing result last weekend when they faced Manchester United.
An Ella Toone brace and a Leah Galton strike gave United a three-goal lead at the break, before Adriana Leon added another in the second half to condemn the Seagulls to a 4-0 defeat.
Although Brighton will face a tough test on Sunday, they can take confidence from the fact that they held Brighton to a goalless draw in their most recent home meeting with Chelsea.
Chelsea began the season with a surprise defeat to newly-promoted Liverpool, but they have since responded in style, winning four consecutive matches in all competitions.
After beating Manchester City and West Ham United, a Pernille Harder brace and a Niamh Charles strike helped the Blues claim a 3-1 victory over Everton last weekend.
Three straight league wins have left Chelsea in third place, and although they have played a game more, they are level on points with Arsenal and Manchester United, who are currently above them in the league table.
In their most recent encounter, the Blues began their Champions League campaign with a 1-0 away victory over Paris Saint-Germain thanks to Millie Bright's first half goal.
As they turn their attention back to league matters, Chelsea will be confident of claiming three points on Sunday after winning six of their last seven away games in the WSL.
