Crystal Palace: Gaining Ground

Crystal Palace head into this encounter on a high after dispatching Fulham 3-0 to book a place in the FA Cup semi-finals. That dominant performance was backed up by a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Southampton in midweek, where a stoppage-time equalizer salvaged a point.

Under Oliver Glasner, the Eagles have developed a balanced, attacking edge while maintaining structure at the back. With key players stepping up in crucial moments and home support behind them, Palace will be confident in extending their solid run.

Brighton: Stuttering Post-Break

Brighton & Hove Albion find themselves in a challenging spot after what looked like a resurgence earlier this season. Since returning from the March international break, they’ve exited the FA Cup after a dramatic penalty shootout loss to Nottingham Forest and then suffered a heavy 3-0 defeat to Aston Villa in the league.

Fabian Hürzeler’s men are still in the European qualification conversation, but inconsistency could threaten their top-four ambitions. A result at Selhurst Park is vital to regain their rhythm.

Prediction

Crystal Palace have found their stride in recent weeks and look like the more cohesive side coming into this matchup. With Brighton struggling to regain form and facing the pressure of staying in the Champions League hunt, the advantage leans toward the hosts.

Tip: Crystal Palace to win or draw (Double Chance)

Prediction: Crystal Palace 2-1 Brighton
