Latest Brighton vs Crystal Palace football review
Brighton are on their longest three-game winless run under manager Fabian Hurzeler, dropping to seventh. Failure to win against teams lower down the table, like last week's draw with Leicester, could affect their May targets. Yankuba Minteh scored to give Brighton a chance to win, but Jamie Vardy and Bobby Decordova-Reid scored late on to earn Leicester a point.
A 1-1 draw with Southampton marked a run of five games without a win against bottom-placed teams. Crystal Palace, the opponents this time, are also bottom, but Brighton have been consistent at home, remaining unbeaten in the Premier League this season, along with Arsenal and Brentford.
A clean sheet would help Brighton end a run of poor results against weaker teams. Despite being strong in attack, Brighton have conceded in each of their last seven games, scoring 37 goals and conceding 53 since the start of last season.
Brighton have beaten Crystal Palace twice in a row at home for the first time since the 1980s, and they will be confident of keeping that streak going, especially after last season's 4-1 win.
Crystal Palace have not beaten Brighton in their last six meetings, but they go into the game in good spirits, having moved out of the bottom of the table following a 2-2 draw with Manchester City. Manager Oliver Glasner was disappointed that his team took the lead twice but failed to capitalise on the advantage of Man City being down to 10 men.
The win over Ipswich Town was a significant result, leaving Palace with just one loss in their last eight games. Despite their struggles on the road, Palace are unbeaten on the road in three games and a win here would see them win back-to-back Premier League away games for the first time since the 2022-23 season.
