The last match in the sixth week of the English Premier League will bring Crystal Palace to face Brighton & Hove Albion. We got good odds for a home not to lose here as it will be a tight match in my book. 

The Eagles in the previous match, in the EFL Cup lost to Liverpool with a score of 3-0. It was Palace who started to build on their lead with four points from games against Tottenham and West Ham United before they finally lost at Anfield. A total of five points from their opening five matches means they can occupy the temporary 14th position of the Premier League. However, Patrick Vieira's side have strategized on their two home games unbeaten, conceding no goals following their EFL Cup exit at the hands of Watford. Eagle, unlike most other Premier League clubs, has no fatigue in the middle of the game to come. Since the days of Ian Holloway, Palace have kept three clean sheets in their first three league games of the domestic season and that courage will be tested against Brighton. In this match, Crystal Palace will miss Nathan Ferguson, who is currently injured. While there are doubts about Eberechi Eze who is currently recovering from the injury he suffered.

Brighton may not always get satisfactory results in their performances last season. The south coast teams are at their best with 12 points from their last five Premier League games. After claiming a 2-1 win against Leicester City in their last Premier League outing, the Seagulls could then sink the Swansea in the EFL Cup, as Aaron Connoly's brace secured a fourth-half run. Meanwhile, Brighton have doubts about starting Alexis Mac Allister after recovering from a back injury. Meanwhile, Tariq Lamptey and Adam Webster will be out until the next international break.

A great start to the season for Brighton and an impeccable away record must be commended. But in this match, Vieira will use their own strength to get a point from the derby. But sooner or later, Brighton will fall down with performances and results. Will this happen today? I think yes. I expect an tight clash and draw as the most likely result, 1-1 prediction.
