Betting notes

How to bet on Brighton vs Palace

Four angles to weigh before you place a bet on this fixture.

  1. 01

    The corners range is 10-13. The favourite tends to win most of them while the underdog sits deep, so team corners can beat the match total.

  2. 02

    With the draw only 26%, the match-result market is fairly clean. Brighton on the Brighton -0.5 handicap gives a bigger price if you expect a comfortable win.

  3. 03

    Powerplay247 is an exchange: you can back or lay every market on Brighton vs Palace and trade out in-play, for example after an early goal, instead of waiting for full time.

  4. 04

    Wait for the confirmed line-ups, usually out an hour before kick-off. A missing striker or first-choice keeper can move the goals lines more than the 1X2 price.
