Brighton vs Crystal Palace: Premier League preview

Brighton come into the M62 derby with just 1 win in 11 Premier League games, a record of late that has haunted Fabian Heurzeler.

The Seagulls opted to keep their pennies in their pockets over the course of the January transfer window, spending only £1.7m on a return for Pascal Groß.

That didn't stop the rumour mill suggesting Carlos Baleba could still be on his way out of the club in the summer, with links continuing between him and Manchester United.

Danny Welbeck started alongside Georginio Rutter against Everton and the pair could partner each other again this weekend.

Palace smashed their record transfer fee twice in the January window, spending the money and then some that Manchester City had coughed up for Guehi.

Parting ways with £35million for Brennan Johnson from Tottenham Hotspur and then £43m Jorgen Strand Larsen from Wolverhampton Wanderers means the Eagles are likely to see their squad broken up come the summer.

Jean-Philippe Mateta's move to Italy broke down, whilst Adam Wharton continues to be linked with switches to both Liverpool and Manchester United.

It's just one win in ten Premier League games for Glasner, who will also see his journey as boss come to an end in the summer months.

FourFourTwo's prediction

Brighton 1-0 Crystal Palace

Brighton came agonisingly close to beating Everton this weekend, and despite Palace's deadline-day spending, we predict another defeat on Sunday.
