We could be in for a great game as Brighton & Hove Albion take on Crystal Palace in the English Premier League. There's a huge rivalry between these two sides, stretching back to the 1970's, and we're excited to see what this match will bring. Palace have had the better of their opponents in recent seasons, winning three and drawing two of the last six meetings, but the Seagulls have started their 26/27 campaign in excellent style. Brighton have won four and drawn one of their opening six league games, scoring 18 goals in the process, more than any other EPL side.

The Eagles, on the other hand, have only won two of their opening six Premier League games. They head into this one on the back of a 3-2 defeat away to Lyon in the Europa League. Of their last five in all comps, Palace have won two and lost two, it's difficult to predict which version of Crystal Palace will turn up week to week. Brighton have won five straight games in all competitions, scoring 17 goals in that time and keeping four clean sheets.

For our prediction, we're looking at the home win. We're expecting goals, too, looking at Brighton's fantastic scoring record and Palace's habit of conceding.
