Crystal Palace have James McArthur back from injury and Joachim Andersen is close to coming back. Brighton have Evan Ferguson back after he missed the Bournemouth game with a knee injury.
Alexis Mac Allister is back from suspension, but Adam Lallana is not feeling well and doesn't play in this game.
I really like Brighton, and I think they're doing a great job. I like the way they play and the chances they create. They're very brave on the ball, and I think they always make the right choices.
Crystal Palace have been having a rough time recently, with only one win in their past eight league games.
The Eagles are determined, even though they are at home. I think they will be able to pull through this situation and get something out of it.
Oli predicts that the number of points scored by the team will be between 0 and 3.
Brighton are very good at football, but they have never beaten West Ham in the Premier League. This makes them our "bogey team," while Palace is just a bit irritating. Roberto de Zerbi, a player from Palace, says he is looking forward to the game against Brighton on Saturday because it will be an "honour" to play against them.
The home game between Brighton and the Eagles was postponed in September because of a planned rail strike.
Before his first taste of the rivalry between the two sides, De Zerbi said that they need to be careful with their quality so that they can play a bold game, and also be aggressive.
We're Brighton and so far this season we've had great success in terms of results and also in terms of the quality of our play. We have to keep up this good work and don't forget who we are as a team. I love playing this game. It's an honour to be a part of it.
The Italian coach says that he doesn't need to talk to his players about the emotional occasion of the game, because the emotions are the most important part.
Roberto De Zerbi said that Brighton will have to be very focused in order to win against Crystal Palace, and that the team will have to play with a different style. He also said that there is a lot of competition for places on the team, and that this can make it difficult to stay focused.
The Albion boss tells the player that they are sorry but they can't do anything to help them.
Alexis Mac Allister will be in the squad after he has finished his suspension.
“He is a very important player for us.
Adam Lallana and Levi Colwill are not playing today and there are a few other doubts.
Elsewhere, he has a problem with having too many choices.
