Analysis
This fixture is genuinely competitive with no discernible advantage. Brighton will likely control possession through Mac Allister's distribution, while Palace threatens on the break via Eze's creativity. The 36-28-36 baseline reflects a true coin-flip scenario; expect a closely contested, tactical midfield battle with draw probability elevated by conservative play from both sides seeking points without risk.
