Fulham will aim to edge closer to European qualification spots when they take on Crystal Palace in a London derby at Selhurst Park in Saturday's Premier League action.
Throughout their 11-year stay in the England's top flight, excluding the current season, Crystal Palace have consistently steered clear of relegation scrambles, with last season's impressive 10th-place finis standing as their best league achievement so far. However, a disappointing haul of seven points and only one registered win from the first 10 league matches of the new domestic campaign is raising concerns among Selhurst Park supporters, as their Eagles are keeping their heads above water by just two points.
From 2018 to 2022, Fulham were known as a "yo-yo" club, moving up and down between the Premier League and the Championship, but with Marco Silva at the helm, they successfully stabilized their top-flight status, achieving consecutive finishes in 10th place in 2023 and 13th in the previous season. The start of the 2024-25 campaign shows that the Cottagers are performing well, with an commendable tally of 15 points that has placed them in ninth, just three points behind Chelsea, who sit in the final spot leading to next season's Champions League.
Crystal Palace vs Fulham Betting Tips: X2 (Double chance)
In what has been one of their most difficult starts in recent memory, Crystal Palace had to wait a staggering nine weeks to claim their first victory of the season, shocking none other than Tottenham with a lone goal from Mateta. After that brilliant triumph, the Eagles took down another giant in Aston Villa with a 2-1 win that sent them to the EFL Cup quarterfinals, but the frustrating 2-2 draw at Molineux against bottom-dwelling Wolves last time out has somewhat slowed their momentum.
On their part, Fulham have closed the gap to just three points off the European spots, and none of this would have been possible without the heroics of super-sub Harry Wilson, who netted a stunning late brace to hand his team a sensational 2-1 comeback victory over Brentford. Although away wins have been rare, the Cottagers have no reason to feel disappointed, as only the four-time champions Man City have surpassed them in a five-goal thriller during their last four top-flight trips (W1 D2).
Marco Silva’s squad will aim to extend their unbeaten streak to three matches, drawing inspiration from the fact that they have not been defeated by their London rivals in any of the last five head-to-head clashes, four of which ended in a share of the points. While Crystal Palace have sparked their season with a few solid showings recently, stubborn Fulham appear to have the necessary depth to stay undefeated against a city rival hampered by the absence of key figures such as Eze, Wharton, and Matheus Franca.

Fulham team news
For Saturday's London derby, Fulham are nearly at full strength, with the sole exception of Serbian midfielder Sasa Lukic, who is still in recovery from a shoulder injury sustained during the October international break.
27-year-old winger Harry Wilson impressed as a super sub last week, coming off the bench to score two stunning goals in injury time and propel his team to a dramatic 2-1 victory, and he is sure to earn a starting spot here.
