Crystal Palace hosts Brighton & Hove Albion in round 17 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Monday, December 16th at Selhurst Park (London)
Crystal Palace managed to earn seven points in the last three rounds. But before that, the Glaziers scored only one point in five championship matches. And Crystal Palace did not concede a single goal in those three successful matches. Londoners climbed quite high in the standings. They take the seventh line. And the coach Roy Hodgson is already seriously discussing the place of his team in European cups for next season. But his team needs to earn points. And the Glaziers are quite capable of it in the upcoming home game.

Brighton is only two lines lower in the standings. This is true. The team managed to gain four points in the last two rounds. Moreover, three of them were taken from Arsenal in London. But the team of Graham Potter (I just want to write Harry) doesn’t know how to play away. And the victory over Arsenal is just an exception to the rule. Brighton scored only seven points in eight away matches, lost five of them and won only two games. And Brighton is weak away not only in this championship. In the last championship, the Seagulls earned only 13 points in 19 away games.
Brighton was stronger in the last visit to Crystal Palace (1-2). But it was only its second victory in the last seven head-to-head matches of the teams over the past 17 years in Croydon, which is located in southern London. The Seagulls are unlikely to earn more than one point at Selhurst Park now. Crystal Palace lost in three out of eight home matches. But those games were lost to the first three teams in the standings. On the other hand, the Glaziers beat Norwich, Bournemouth and Aston Villa. And Everton and Wolverhampton were content with only one point. Judging by the available data, Brighton will surely not manage to gain more than one point.
Prediction for the match: Crystal Palace to win with +0.5 handicap
