Brighton Preview – Can Seagulls win derby honours?
Brighton bring a three-match unbeaten run into this upcoming M23 derby against fierce rivals, Crystal Palace, following wins against Brentford 2-0 at home and a 3-2 win away at Everton along with gaining a point in a creditable 1-1 draw away at Chelsea as well.
Brighton have been involved in a number of draws this season, no fewer than nine in fact, but manager, Graham Potter has made Brighton a tough team to beat as the hosts have lost just three of their last 16 matches overall in the Premier League.
The bigger picture shows just three defeats in their last 14 home games, so Brighton may be tough to put away here.
Crystal Palace Preview – Can Eagles improve consistency?
Inconsistent Crystal Palace make the trip down to the south coast to take on rivals, Brighton, on the back of a disappointing 3-2 loss at home to London rivals, West Ham, and indeed, Patrick Vieira’s side have managed to pick up just two wins in their last nine games overall.
These victories came in the form of wins against Everton and Norwich City, both of which were on home soil at Selhurst Park but this poor sequence of results also include five defeats which suggest this upcoming fixture against Brighton may be a tricky one for the visitors.
In addition, Palace will be without their influential talisman, Wilfred Zaha, as he’s away on international duty in the African Cup of Nations while just one away win in their last 11 games on the road also underline the task that Palace face here.
