Latest football match prediction: Brighton vs Crystal Palace
Brighton are enduring their longest three-game winless streak under manager Fabian Hurzeler, dropping to seventh place. Their inability to beat lower-ranked teams, such as last week's draw against Leicester, could impact their May objectives. Yankuba Minteh scored to give Brighton a clear win, but Jamie Vardy and Bobby Decordova-Reid scored late goals to salvage a point for Leicester.
The 1-1 draw with Southampton marked a run of five consecutive winless matches against bottom-of-the-table teams. Crystal Palace, their opponent this time, is also in the bottom group, but Brighton has maintained consistent form at home, remaining unbeaten in the Premier League this season, along with Arsenal and Brentford.
A clean sheet would help Brighton end their poor run of results against weaker teams. Despite their attacking prowess, Brighton have conceded in all seven of their recent matches, scoring 37 goals and conceding 53 since the start of last season.
Brighton have beaten Crystal Palace twice in a row at home, the first time dating back to the 1980s, and they have reason to be confident of maintaining this record, especially after their 4-1 victory last season.
Crystal Palace haven't beaten Brighton in their last six meetings, but they entered the match in good spirits, having escaped the bottom of the table after a 2-2 draw with Manchester City. Manager Oliver Glasner regretted that his team took the lead twice but failed to capitalize on the fact that Man City were down to 10 men.
The victory against Ipswich Town was a crucial result, helping Palace to lose only one of their last eight matches. Despite the difficulties on the road, Palace are on a three-match unbeaten run away from home, and a win in this match would mark their first consecutive two-game away win in the Premier League since the 2022-23 season.
