How can I watch it?

Live coverage of the game will be shown on Sky Sports Premier League. Subscribers can also stream the match live on the Sky Sports website and SkyGo app.

What is the team news?

Brighton could be boosted by the return of Alireza Jahanbakhsh, who has missed his side’s last nine games with a hamstring injury. Adam Webster’s presence is doubtful, and Tariq Lamptey remains out.

Palace are expected to be without Wilfried Zaha again, but midfielder James McCarthy was back in training last week.

Predicted line-ups

Brighton: Sanchez; White, Dunk, Webster, Veltman, Gross, Bissouma, Burn, Mac Allister, Trossard, Welbeck

Crystal Palace: Guaita; Ward, Dann, Cahill, Van Aanholt, Townsend, Kouyate, Riedewald, Eze, Benteke, Mateta

Odds

Brighton: 4/5

Draw: 13/5

Crystal Palace: 5/1

Prediction

Brighton have been impressive of late, finally turning promising performances into consistent results. Their xG, both offensively and defensively, suggests they should be in the top half of the table, and they should have too much for a Palace side badly missing the influence of Zaha. Brighton 2-0 Crystal Palace.
