Crystal Palace vs Brighton & Hove Albion Prediction and Betting Tips | 11th February 2023
Crystal Palace will host arch-rivals Brighton & Hove Albion at Selhurst Park on Saturday.
Crystal Palace have endured a difficult time of late. The last time that Patrick Vieira's men tasted victory was all the way back on New Year's eve. The Eagles' 2-0 win over the Cherries has been followed by a six-game winless streak which they will be looking to snap at the weekend against Brighton.
A 2-1 loss against 10-men Manchester United is their latest setback. Palace haven't exactly been awful during this run though and haven't lost by more than a goal in their last three league defeats. For now, they remain 12th in the table, six points clear of the relegation zone.
Although their form at Selhurst Park has been suspect this season, they've done decently in recent weeks. They've managed to hold Manchester United and Newcastle United to draws in their last two league matches at home.
But it will take a massive effort to put one over on their rivals Brighton & Hove Albion this weekend.
Roberto De Zerbi's men have been in very good form in recent weeks and have played some scintillating football. They have won five and drawn one of their last six games across all competitions. This includes two wins over Liverpool across the Premier League and the FA Cup.
Their European aspirations remain alive and are just six points behind fourth-placed Newcastle United and have a game in hand over them. They've also fared well on the road, ekeing out three wins and a draw from their last four away games.
