Crystal Palace v Brighton stream and kick-off time: Full details for A23 derby

talksport.com, 27 September 2021, 15:01
Crystal Palace will host their first A23 derby since lockdown as Brighton travel to Selhurst Park for the Monday night football.

The last time these two sides met in front of a full Palace ground was in December 2019 where they drew 1-1 thanks to goals from Neal Maupay and Wilfried Zaha.

Palace are unbeaten against the Seagulls in their last four matches, drawing and winning two.

The last two fixtures were played behind closed doors but now the home advantage could make the difference.

The Eagles haven't won at home against their 'El Gatwicko' rivals since April 2018, where viewers were treated to a five-goal thriller.

Now, Patrick Vieira will be in charge for his first taste of the derby.

Crystal Palace v Brighton: Date and time

This Premier League clash will take place TONIGHT, Monday, September 27.

Kick-off at Selhurst Park is set for 8pm.

Crystal Palace v Brighton: Team News

Vieira will be expecting a tough battle this evening and will be depending on his front line to score against the high flying Seagulls.

Their only injuries remain the long-term absentees Eberechi Eze and Nathan Ferguson.

Graham Potter is without Adam Webster who missed their win over Leicester last weekend with a hamstring injury.

Yves Bissouma, who was taken off in the second half, is also a doubt and was assessed over the weekend.

Potter will be hoping to have Alexis Mac Allister back in their squad after scoring and assisting already this season from off the bench as he picked up a knock last week.

Enock Mwepu is also hoping to return but remains a doubt with a groin injury.

Potter revealed that Tariq Lamptey will be in the squad.

Crystal Palace v Brighton: What's been said?

Vieira will be hoping that Zaha can channel his passion and be consistent for the big derby clash: "I don't want him to change - I want him to play with the same kind of passion.

"He is a winner, and I want that kind of winning mentality to be translated to the rest of the team. That is his personality, and I like to see him like that on the field.

"Wilfried playing those kind of games at home or away, he knows the intensity, the atmosphere of the stadium - he knows what to expect. Being in the dressing room, he will talk to the players who never had the chance to play those games.

"As a top player, he needs to be consistent in his performance.

"Against Liverpool, he was good. He had the time to create something for the team. I was really happy with the last couple of games he played, and I will want him to maintain that level because he is an important player for us."

Meanwhile, similar encouragements have been heard from the Brighton boss about their own talisman Maupay.

Potter said: "He needs to stay on the path he is on.. To understand challenges of Premier League and isn't always easy to succeed.

"It's easier to stay in the Championship and score 20 or 30 goals a season. That isn't so easy in Premier League. He is learning to contribute in and be a part of the team - if he's not scoring.

"And I think he's done that better and better playing in this league. Like anything, with experience, reflection, learning, he becomes a better player."

Crystal Palace v Brighton: Match Stats

Crystal Palace are unbeaten in their last four league meetings with Brighton (W2 D2), though both victories in this run have come away from home.

Brighton have won just one of their last seven away games against Crystal Palace in all competitions (D4 L2), though they are unbeaten in their last three at Selhurst Park.

Crystal Palace have won just one of their last 12 Premier League matches played on a Monday (D3 L8), though this victory did come against Brighton (2-1 in February). Meanwhile, Brighton are winless in all 10 of their Premier League games played on a Monday (D7 L3).

Crystal Palace have kept a clean sheet in both of their Premier League home games this season, drawing 0-0 with Brentford and beating Spurs 3-0. The only top-flight campaign in which the Eagles didn't concede in any of their first three home games was 1979-80, while Patrick Vieira could be the first Palace manager to do so in his first three home league games in charge since Ian Holloway in December 2012.

Crystal Palace have had fewer shots on target than any side in the Premier League this season (11). However, they've scored five goals, giving the Eagles the best goals to shots on target ratio in the competition this term (45%).

Brighton have won four of their last five Premier League games (L1), and are looking for three consecutive league victories for the first time since October 2018.

Brighton have won both of their Premier League away games so far this season. They've never won three in a row on the road in the top-flight before, while only three times have they ever won each of their first three away league games in a single season (1953-54, 1957-58 and 2011-12).

42% of Brighton's Premier League corners this season have led to a chance for the Seagulls (11/26), the highest ratio in the division. Meanwhile, Crystal Palace have conceded more goals from corner situations than any other side in the Premier League this term (3).

Only Manchester City (6) have faced fewer shots on target in the Premier League than Brighton (13) so far this season. Brighton's 2.6 shots on target faced per game this term is their lowest in a single season in the competition, with this number gradually declining each campaign (4.8 in 2017-18, 4.6 in 2018-19, 4.5 in 2019-20, 3.3 in 2020-21).

Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha has scored seven goals against Brighton in his career (all competitions) - against no side has he scored more in English football. The Ivorian has scored four goals in his last four against the Seagulls at Selhurst Park.
