Match Details
Brighton v Crystal Palace takes place on Sunday, October 18, 2026 at the American Express Stadium. The kick-off time and UK broadcast details for this fixture are still to be confirmed by the Premier League.
American Express Stadium
The American Express Stadium, commonly known as the Amex Stadium, has been Brighton's home ground since 2011, when the club moved in after years of ground-sharing and campaigning for a permanent home. Having made the upgrade, Brighton’s stadium currently has a capacity of 31,876 and is well known for its curved roof design. If you're travelling to the stadium, it's really easy to get to via public transport. Falmer railway station is right next to the ground, meaning you can get direct train services from both Brighton and Lewes. But, if you’d prefer to avoid getting the train, there are also plenty of bus services that can take you to the ground.
Head-to-Head Record
This is without doubt one of the most fiercely contested local rivalries in English football. Known to many football fans as the M23 derby, there have 145 meetings between the two sides since 1920. Of those 145 meetings, Crystal Palace have won 52 times compared to Brighton's 51, while there have been 42 draws. Palace also won the most recent meeting between the sides in February, ending a really poor run of form midway through last season. This season, however, both clubs head into the fixture full of confidence after strong finishes to last season.
Last Meeting: Brighton 0-1 Crystal Palace (February 8, 2026)
Crystal Palace scraped a 1-0 win over Brighton at the Amex Stadium last time out. Ismaila Sarr scored the only goal of the game in which both sides struggled to trouble the opposition keepers. Hurzeler’s side were booed off the pitch at half time after a really poor run of form. This win proved to be a turning for Oliver Glasner’s side however, who used the momentum to go on and win the UEFA Conference League at the end of the campaign. With both sides starting the season off with mixed results, it could be a real opportunity for either team to lay down a marker and build momentum for the rest of the season. Pierre Sage will be desperate for his first win as Palace boss, while it seems Hurzeler still has a point to prove to the Brighton fans calling for him to be sacked last season.
Brighton 2026-2027 Season
Brighton head into the 2026-2027 campaign with Fabian Hürzeler once again leading the club. They finished 8th last season and qualified for the Conference League, which for a club of Brighton’s stature, is a fantastic achievement. Continuing their reputation as a selling club, Brighton had some of their best players picked from their squad in the summer transfer window, with Jean Paul van Hecke heading to Spurs, Carlos Baleba moving to Manchester United and Danny Welbeck joining Chelsea. However, to counteract this, Hurzeler has also spent big, bringing in Luka Vušković and Zadok Yohanna to freshen up the squad. Despite their positive transfer window, Brighton have started the campaign with mixed results. They beat Aston Villa comfortably on the opening day before losing 4-3 to Chelsea in their second game. That said, Brighton tended to struggle for goals last season but having scored seven in two games already this campaign, it looks as if they’ve put their attacking struggles behind them.
Crystal Palace 2026-2027 Season
Crystal Palace are entering a new era after Oliver Glasner's incredible spell in charge came to a fairytale end at the end of last season, with the Austrian leading the Eagles to their first ever European trophy in the Conference League. Pierre Sage has been appointed as his successor and he has been busy in the transfer market already, bringing in the likes of Dwight McNeil, Takehiro Tomiyasu, Oscar Mingueza and Evann Guessand, while losing key man Daniel Muñoz. Despite looking like he wanted to leave this summer, Palace have also managed to retain Jean Phillipe Mateta, while also warding off any interest for midfield maestro, Adam Wharton. After last season, expectations have never been higher for Palace, and it's up to Sage to prove he can keep the ball rolling after Glasner’s success. This may be easier said than done however, Glasner was a hugely popular figure at Palace and Sage has big shoes to fill. But with expectations at an all time high and a squad with plenty of new players, it could be a tough campaign for Palace.
