The visiting Brighton & Hove Albion are doing much worse in the table. They sit 15th, only 5 points above the relegation trip. Their overall performance is not inspiring. Indeed, the team were victors in the last round, but that was a win over the rock-bottom Huddersfield Town, a single one in a bad row. Before, the side managed to rack up just 1 point in 6 matches and contrived to concede to the second-last Fulham who missed Claudio Ranieri yet. Though Palace and Brighton feature only a 3-point breakaway, the guests’ outlook in their trip to London is not promising at all.
In the first-term meeting at home, Brighton won Palace, 3:1. The match was held in December though – Brighton’s run was decent then and the team boasted a draw against Leicester City and a win over Huddersfield, while Palace were on the ride of 9-match streak in which they lost 6 times and won once. The present situation is totally different – the hosts are on the go, and the guests struggle a lot. The only thing that brings concern is that Palace attained only 3 home wins of their total 9. However, Brighton’s current form leaves much to be desired and they look miserable out. Of 14 trips to the opponents, they celebrated 2 wins and suffered 12 losses. The Selhurst Park is not very comfortable for them either – in the 6 last visits there, Brighton were winners just once and lost thrice. In half of the matches, they failed to find the net. The homeside have a minor breakaway from the drop zone, and it needs to be sustained somehow. There are 9 more rounds to play, and the hosts are expected to gain 3 points in the clash with the weak opponents, in order to feel safe in the end of the campaign. We’re betting on Palace’s win.
Prediction for the match: Crystal Palace to win home.
