Brighton v Crystal Palace: match preview
The M23 non-derby derby is again to present armchair aficionados their newest probability to be advised by commentators how good it could be to have them again from exile. Brighton, sadly, seem to not share the sentiment, as their report unbeaten run within the Premier League exhibits no indicators of stopping. Graham Potter’s facet look more likely to prolong their keep within the prime flight for an additional season. Crystal Palace’s keep is unlikely to finish too but when they report a 3rd poor defeat in succession with out Wilfried Zaha then Roy Hodgson may start to really feel a contact nervous of being drawn right into a relegation battle.
