Preview: Crystal Palace vs. Brighton & Hove Albion

Sports Mole previews this weekend's Championship clash between Crystal Palace and Brighton & Hove Albion.

Crystal Palace welcome Brighton & Hove Albion to Selhurst Park this weekend as they attempt to get back to winning ways.

Ian Holloway's side have not won their last two games but they continue to sit in the automatic promotion places in the Championship table behind Cardiff City, who top the standings.

Brighton boss Gus Poyet will be eager to push into the playoff places and they head into the clash on the back of a 2-0 win over Bristol City.

The home side are likely to call on Glenn Murray to try to find the back of the net following the striker's suspension, while Brighton are expected to line up with a forward three of William Buckley, Stephen Dobbie and Will Hoskins.
