The Germany star had a hand in the opening goal of the 2-0 win over the Seagulls, firing in a deflected shot that went down as an own goal by Pascal Gross.

Alexander Isak doubled the advantage in the first half before Wirtz was withdrawn for Trey Nyoni after 65 minutes after going down injured.

Chelsea arrive on Merseyside for the fourth-round tie on Wednesday but Iraola conceded his in-form playmaker is now a doubt for that match and may be held in reserve ahead of a huge visit from Arsenal in the Premier League on Sunday, November 1.
