Match Preview
Crystal Palace is having a great stretch of the season. The team has already reached the semi-finals of the national cup, and in the last game, they conceded away for the first time in eight matches.
Interestingly, this hasn't significantly impacted their league position, as the London club is only in 12th place. However, Crystal Palace has a solid defense, with only Arsenal and Liverpool conceding fewer goals.
Brighton sometimes looks magnificent, racking up victories one after another. However, the "Seagulls" lack consistency in terms of results, although they continue to fight for a spot in European competitions.
The team took points off Man City, after which they lost to Nottingham in the FA Cup. Midweek, Brighton was defeated at home by Aston Villa (0-3), and after 30 rounds, they sit in eighth place in the EPL table.

Prediction
The hosts are in excellent form, but Brighton should not be underestimated. I think the "Seagulls" will come to London for points and will manage to continue their fight for European competitions, avoiding defeat in this match.
