Sunday sees one of the more unusual derbies in the Premier League and we’ve backed the in-form man to deliver once again.
The M23 derby at the Amex Stadium sees Brighton host Crystal Palace and we say go for Pascal Gross to score or assist against the Eagles.
The German has been in excellent form under Fabian Hurzeler and has directly contributed to seven goals in his first six Premier League games this season, including in each of his last three matches.
Acting as the mastermind behind an attack that has already scored 18 goals, Gross also monopolizes penalties, corners and free-kicks, making him a constant threat against a scrappy Palace defense that routinely struggles against deliveries from wide areas.
Elsewhere, Elland Road sets the stage for a heated Roses rivalry, and backing both teams to score when Leeds United host Manchester United looks the ideal foundation for a weekend double.
Leeds have rarely drawn a blank in front of a raucous home crowd and have found the net consistently all season, while Michael Carrick’s side remain fragile at the back with just one win in six league outings. United, languishing in 14th place, still boasting genuine passing firepower at the break, this historic fixture has all the ingredients for an open, head-to-head clash where clean sheets will be hard to come by.

Pascal Gross @ 21/20 to score or assist against Sara
