Comments:

League position: 14th Crystal Palace had now lost eight of their 15 home games so far in this Premier League season (won three). Since making his debut in the Premier League in February 2017, Luka Milivojević had now scored 17 penalties; nine more than any other player. This was Roy Hodgson's 300th game as a manager in English league football. His first was for Bristol City against Huddersfield Town in League Division Three on 16 January 1982. Of the 18 players in Palace's squad for this game, only Julian Speroni had been born before that date.

Comments:

League position: 15th By winning consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since December 2018, Brighton and Hove Albion had now won two of their last nine games in the division. Former Crystal Palace striker Glenn Murray became the second player to score 100 league goals for the Seagulls (also Tommy Cook, 114 goals from 1921 to 1929 in Division Three [South]). Anthony Knockaert's booking after 28 seconds was the quickest in a game in the Premier League since Stephen Warnock of Blackburn Rovers was shown a yellow card against Hull City on 1 March 2009 after 26 seconds. Florin Andone was originally named in the starting line-up before suffering a thigh injury in the pre-match warm-up. Glenn Murray was promoted to the starting XI with Jürgen Locadia taking his place on the bench.
