A fascinating clash between rivals is set for the Premier League this Sunday, as Crystal Palace travel to Brighton.

The Seagulls come into this round after failing to win in their last three. Most recently, Brighton were held to a 2-2 draw against Leicester, despite racing into a 2-0 lead at the King Power Stadium.

Crystal Palace continue to battle at the opposite end of the standings, but their position was eased slightly following a battling performance against Man City last Saturday.

However, the Seagulls have recorded just two wins over this period, with four matches ending in draws. Palace are winless against the Seagulls since a 2-1 away victory in February 2021.

Brighton vs. Crystal Palace Prediction

Brighton have proven hard to trust as a short-price favorite in the Premier League this season, and they could find this challenge testing at the Amex Stadium on Sunday.

Palace looked back to somewhere near their best last weekend, and they could be good value to take a point from this showdown.
