Dale Stephens insists Brighton are 'confident' of taking a giant step towards Premier League safety in Saturday's clash at Crystal Palace.
Chris Hughton's men blew a fine chance to move further away from the relegation picture with their 1-1 home draw with Huddersfield.
But with a goalless draw in the league and a 2-1 win in the FA Cup already in the bag over fierce rivals Palace, midfielder Stephens believes Brighton are ready for their Selhurst Park trip.
'It's been 'must win' for the last three games - we've gone into each game with that mentality but I think every team in the Premier League is doing that,' said Stephens.
