Fulham vs Crystal Palace Analysis
It’s been a rather poor start to the campaign for the Cottagers, who have compiled a 5-2-7 record, sitting only three points above safety. While Wednesday did end in another defeat, it did show what this side is capable of when they play up to par. Marco Silva’s side took part in a nine-goal thriller at Craven Cottage against Man City, and frankly, they should’ve grabbed a point, at the very least. Fulham had numerous chances to equalize late in the second half, but the hosts simply couldn’t find another breakthrough.
While it was a loss, the fact that they played that well against a world-class club like City should give the Cottagers some much-needed confidence heading into this fixture against Palace. For what it’s worth, Silva’s men have played a mile better at home. They’ve gone 4-1-2 compared to a 1-1-5 record on the road. A victory here could potentially move Fulham to the doorstep of the top half of the table, depending on how results unfold elsewhere.
Losing Eberechi Eze to Arsenal was a gut punch for Palace. After all, he was their best player and the engine of their midfield. However, you wouldn’t even realize that he’s gone, considering how well the Eagles have played. Heading into Sunday’s affair, Oliver Glasner’s squad is only one point out of a UCL spot, posting a 6-5-3 record. Palace has bagged 18 goals in 14 appearances while conceding just 11 times.
Palace has Daniel Munoz to thank for their matchday 14 victory, with the Colombian hitting the back of the net just before halftime at Turf Moor. That was the Eagles’ third clean sheet in their last four Premier League matches, and they’ve also kept Fulham out of their net in back-to-back meetings. Palace has managed to thrive away from Selhurst Park, collecting a 4-1-2 record. That’s one of the best away records in the top flight. The Eagles have also won three straight on the road.

Fulham vs Crystal Palace Picks
Palace has been playing a lot of games lately across all competitions, and fatigue is a real thing. I think we’ll see these two settle for a point apiece here. There is huge value at +225.
