THE LOWDOWN

BRIGHTON

  • A point for Brighton away at Leeds turned out to be a good result in their battle for European football next season with Fulham and Brentford both losing in the same round of fixtures.
  • Defender Adam Webster was forced off at Elland Road through injury and could miss out here, with either Levi Colwill and Jan Paul van Hecke potential replacements in the starting line-up should that be the case.

CRYSTAL PALACE

  • Despite a valiant effort from Crystal Palace at the weekend, they fell to a 0-1 defeat at home to title chasers Man City, the reigning champions breaking through deep into the second half, through an Erling Haaland penalty.
  • The Eagles are still without a win this calendar year, drawing five times and losing six in all competitions, scoring just five goals in the process.

THE TEAM NEWS

BRIGHTON

PREDICTED XI (4-2-3-1): Steele; Veltman, Colwill, Dunk, Estupinan; Gross, Caicedo; March, Mac Allister, Mitoma; Ferguson

UNAVAILABLE: Moder (Injured), Lallana (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Lamptey (Injured), Webster (Injured), Gilmour (Injured)

CRYSTAL PALACE

PREDICTED XI (4-3-3): Guaita; Clyne, Anderson, Guehi, Mitchell; Lokonga, Eze, Schlupp; Olise, Ayew, Zaha

UNAVAILABLE: Johnstone (Injured)

QUESTIONABLE: Ferguson (Fitness), Hughes (Illness)

THE PREDICTION

Crystal Palace’s rotten recent run is leaving them vulnerable to a slide down the table and bitter rivals Brighton will be in no mood to show any mercy. The Seagulls have lost just one of their last 11 in all competitions, winning seven times and are looking extremely strong going forward. Compare that with Palace’s lack of cutting edge offensively and the expectation is that Brighton should outscore them fairly comfortably here, so back a home victory.

TIP: BRIGHTON TO WIN
