In a game of very few chances, returning AFCON star Sarr proved the difference for the Eagles after a clinical finish from debutant Evann Guessand’s through ball just after the hour mark to earn the bragging rights for the Eagles.
Brighton continued to toil to find a way back into the game but continued to lack any sort of killer touch as they looked a shadow of the side which was troubling the Champions League places at the start of December.
Palace climb above a place and a point above Brighton into 13th place with 32 points, nine points above the bottom three.
