Brighton are still winless this year and under pressure as they gear up to face bitter rivals Crystal Palace. Roy Hodgson’s side were in the same boat until last weekend. The confidence three points can bring could give Palace a useful edge with Brighton looking over their shoulder into the relegation zone. One certainty is Graham Potter needs to plan for Wilfired Zaha. The forward tends to save his best for the M23 derby. Avoiding defeat could be the order of the day again for both sides.
