Comments on the match Crystal Palace vs Brighton, 9:00 p.m. November 9: "Eagles" hunt "Seagulls"

Crystal Palace vs Brighton form

Since the beginning of the season, encounters with Liverpool have always brought sweet memories to Crystal Palace. After defeating The Kop in the Community Shield, the Selhurst Park team became the pioneer to stop the 7-game winning streak and drag the Premier League champions into dark days.

In the mid-October slump, the trip to Anfield in the fourth round of the League Cup helped Crystal Palace "break the curse". After a resounding 3-0 victory to end a four-match streak of draws and losses, coach Oliver Glasner and his team quickly regained their inspiration.

In their last two appearances in both the Premier League and Conference League, The Eagles defeated Brentford (2-0) and AZ Alkmaar (3-1) respectively, thereby extending their winning streak to 3. Welcoming Brighton, the home team did not hesitate to set the goal of extending the joy at Selhurst Park.

The 3 points won will also help Palace "cut off" Brighton, and hope to squeeze into the top 4 because the gap between the home team and 2nd place before round 11 is only 3 points.

Home advantage is the reason why fans can put their faith in Glasner and his team. In the last 13 times hosting guests in all competitions, the Eagles have not tasted defeat once, with 7 wins and 6 draws.

In contrast to their opponents' high spirits, Brighton travelled to London with a more reserved attitude. Since winning promotion to the Premier League, the Seagulls have won just once, drawn five and lost two of their visits to Selhurst Park.

Last season, Fabian Hurzeler's team lost both matches against Crystal Palace. Brighton's away form is not encouraging either.

Brighton have not won in their last 3 away games, drawing 1 and losing 2. While the 2 defeats to Arsenal and Man United can be somewhat understandable, the 1-1 draw at the bottom of the table Wolves really makes Danny Welbeck and his teammates deserve criticism.

Overall, away games have only contributed to 26% of Brighton’s 15 points since the start of the season, so perhaps we shouldn’t expect too much from the visitors’ ability to make a positive impression on their visit to London this weekend.
