Crystal Palace vs Brighton Odds
How both teams go into Crystal Palace vs Brighton
Until recently, Crystal Palace were unable to string three Premier League wins together. In fact, the Eagles are currently experiencing their best form of the season, having accumulated 23 points across their last 11 outings, with only Liverpool (27) producing a better record across this stretch of games. Three of those successes have come at home, where Palace have struggled. Right now, only four clubs—Wolves (11), Leicester City (9), Ipswich (7), and Southampton (4)—have picked up fewer points in front of their own supporters than Palace (17), who have suffered more losses (6) at Selhurst Park than wins (4).
A humbling 7-0 loss at Nottingham Forest in early February was a low point in what has been another encouraging Premier League campaign for Brighton, who bounced back with four straight wins—including a 3-0 home success over Chelsea—before playing out a 2-2 draw at Manchester City before the March international break. That aforementioned loss to Forest and stalemate with City were sandwiched between a 4-0 win at Southampton and, before returning from the City Ground with their tails between their legs, Brighton had recorded wins at Portman Road and Old Trafford. Only four clubs—Liverpool, Arsenal, Forest, and Newcastle—so far boast more away points in this Premier League season than Brighton.
