Crystal Palace - Brighton: Form Analysis
Crystal Palace were building up excellent momentum with three consecutive wins ahead of the international break. However, they would have been bitterly disappointed to return to league action with a 1-1 draw to basement club Southampton in midweek.
Still, that result extended the Glaziers' unbeaten record to four matches and marked the 11th consecutive game in which they have scored at least once, dating back to Boxing Day.
However, the hosts have not been great at home this season. While they have won their last two league home games, only 17 of their 40 points to date have come at Selhurst Park (W4 D5 L6).
Crystal Palace have only kept one clean sheet in their last 10 league games at home!
Meanwhile, Brighton & Hove Albion also returned from the international break with a poor result, losing 3-0 at home to Aston Villa, who leapfrogged them in the league standings with that victory.
That result brought an end to Brighton’s five-match unbeaten run, a period during which they had scored two or more goals in each match dating back to the start of February against Forest.
The visitors have done well on the road in recent times, conceding only a single defeat in their last eight outings (W3 D4 L1). They have also scored two or more goals in seven of their last 10 away league games.

Crystal Palace & Brighton Squad Analysis
Crystal Palace have no new injury concerns to deal with this week, with Cheick Doucoure and Chadli Riad still sidelined for the foreseeable future. Chris Richards is a doubt after missing the last match.
Matheus Franca marked his Premier League season debut with a goal, coming off the bench to spare his side’s blushes against the Saints in midweek, and he will be eager to get some more minutes under his belt.
Ben Chilwell has come off the bench in four of the last five league matches for Palace, including for the last half-hour in midweek, and there is talk of him possibly starting this match.
Ismaila Sarr has scored three goals in his last two home league games for Palace!
Ahead of the match against Villa, Fabian Hurzeler confirmed that Georginio Rutter and Adam Webster could miss the remainder of the season after picking up injuries in the FA Cup loss to Nottingham Forest.
Rutter has scored a joint team-high eight goals in 34 games across all competitions this season. Hurzeler will now have to decide between Brajan Gruda and Danny Welbeck to join Joao Pedro at the top end of the pitch.
Tariq Lamptey (foot), James Milner (hamstring), Igor Julio ( hamstring), and Jason Steele (shoulder) remain sidelined with injuries, while Joel Veltman is flagged as a doubt.
