​Brighton striker Murray expects tough Crystal Palace

Brighton striker Glenn Murray is under no illusions about the next round of Premier League games

As the Albion look to get one more result to secure their place in the Premier League, they could do with a favour from rivals Crystal Palace.

If Palace do not lose to Cardiff, Brighton stay up regardless of how their last two games go.

Murray told The Argus: "I don't think Crystal Palace will (roll over). Strikers will want to score goals, defenders will want to keep a clean sheet.

"You work all week towards the game at the end of the week and they won't want to roll over for anyone.

"I know if the shoe was on the other foot and we were playing a game that affected Crystal Palace, we'd want to do a professional job and win the game."
