Brighton vs Crystal Palace preview
New-look Crystal Palace travel to Brighton and Hove Albion on Saturday at the Amex Stadium, where the Eagles hope the M23 rivalry will get their season back on track.
Palace are winless in nine consecutive Premier League matches with just three draws to show for those 810 minutes on the pitch. Beating a Brighton side they drew at Selhurst Park earlier this season would be a good tonic for a side who have slipped to 15th place, just nine points clear of the bottom three.

WATCH — Brighton vs Crystal Palace
Brighton have led a strange life since December, losing just four times – good – but winning just twice – not so good – in their last 10 Premier League games.
The Seagulls are five points outside the top seven, which should be good enough for European qualification, but they have fared very poorly when it comes to turning draws into wins. Advanced stats indicate that Brighton are a slightly above average attacking team with a slightly below average back line. Can they maintain the former while firming up the latter?

Brighton vs Crystal Palace prediction
Brighton will be favorites to find all the points, and the return of Pascal Gross has been a solid development for Fabian Hurzeler. Palace contains an element of the unknown with Jorgen Strand Larson and the exciting Evann Guessand joining Brennan Johnson as new elements of the attack. The absence of Yasin Ayari is significant for the Seagulls. Probably too big. Brighton 1-1 Crystal Palace.
