It is a fascinating clash of current form against recent history. Fulham have won their last two league games, yet Crystal Palace have owned this fixture for the past couple of seasons despite arriving in poor shape.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two Premium Tips for Fulham vs Crystal Palace, with Anthony Eadson backing the hosts to make home advantage count.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Premium Tip<\/th>Odds<\/th>Why we’re backing it<\/th><\/tr><\/thead>
Josh King to score anytime<\/strong><\/td>2\/1 (Ladbrokes<\/a>)<\/td>Josh King is Fulham’s leading Premier League scorer with two goals, and one of them came against Crystal Palace at Craven Cottage in September. He has started all eight league games, and his 10 shots on target are the most in the squad, more than double anyone else’s. Palace have conceded 19 league goals, the most in the division, kept one clean sheet in eight and shipped seven in their last two league games. At 2\/1 with Ladbrokes, he is worth backing to find the net again.<\/td><\/tr>
Fulham to win by exactly one goal<\/strong><\/td>11\/4 (Sky Bet<\/a>)<\/td>Fulham’s games are rarely decided by much. Six of their eight Premier League matches have been settled by a single goal and the other two were draws, so they are yet to win or lose a league game by more than one. Both league wins were 1-0, at Coventry City and at home to Hull City, and their EFL Cup win at West Ham was 3-2. Palace’s 3-2 win at Craven Cottage in September also came by the narrowest margin. With Fulham the favourites, Sky Bet’s 11\/4 on a one-goal home win appeals.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

How Fulham go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Fulham go into this 15th in the Premier League<\/a> on eight points, with two wins, two draws and four defeats from eight. They have scored only eight goals, but three clean sheets show they can be hard to break down when things click.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crucially, Fulham arrive on the back of two straight wins, 1-0 at Coventry City<\/a> and 1-0 at home to Hull City<\/a>, having also drawn 0-0 at Liverpool<\/a> earlier in their last five league games. The goals have dried up at times, but momentum is with them going into a home tie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Crystal Palace go into the game<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Crystal Palace come to Craven Cottage 17th in the Premier League on seven points, with two wins, one draw and five defeats from eight. Their defensive numbers are alarming: 19 goals conceded, a goal difference of minus 10 and a single clean sheet in the league.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Palace have lost their last two league games, 2-0 at home to Newcastle United<\/a> and 5-0 at Brighton, and have failed to score in four of their eight league games, so for all their recent mastery of Fulham, their form is a worry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n

Crystal Palace have been Fulham’s bogey side, winning four of the last five meetings and losing none of them. That run includes a 3-2 win at Craven Cottage in September 2026 and a 3-0 FA Cup victory on the same ground, so the hosts will have to overturn recent history as well as back their current form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
