• Competition: England - Premier League
• Date: Saturday, 22nd, February 2025
• Kickoff: 15:00 UK / 16:00 CET
• Venue: Craven Cottage (London)

Fulham will aim to edge closer to the European spots when they welcome mid-table Crystal Palace to Craven Cottage for Saturday’s Premier League clash.

Since the start of February's chellenges, Fulham have shown enviable form across all fronts and can proudly point out that they have triumphed in all three of their opening matches, a run which included a 2-1 success over Wigan Athletic that earned them an FA Cup last-16 spot. Domestically, the Cottagers first turned the tide to claim a big 2-1 away win over Newcastle, and then saw off this season's Premier League surprise package Nottingham Forest by the same scoreline, with these exceptional triumps helping to keep their European dreams smoldering.

Crystal Palace, meanwhile, have enjoyed a major revival since the turn of the new calendar year, allowing them to put relegation fears firmly in the rearview mirror and shift their full attention toward climbing the upper reaches of the table as they chase a potential berth in European competition. In their latest top-flight action, Oliver Glasner's men stumbled to a late 1-2 loss to red-hot Everton at their Selhurst Park home,  leaving them stranded on 30 points and trailing sixth-placed Chelsea by a daunting 13-point margin, which makes their European hopes slim but still within reach.

Fulham vs Crystal Palace Betting Tips : BTTS

Playing in front of their home supporters, Fulham have been tipped as favorites, but taking all the spoils against a tricky Palace side will be anything but a walk in the park, making the goal market a much more appealing option in a matchup that has all the ingredients for a lively and action-packed contest. Despite their attacking fluency and ability to find the back of the net with ease, Fulham continues to struggle in the defensive segment, as evidenced by their failure to keep a clean sheet in nine of their last ten outings across all competitions. The Cottagers' fragile backline could be in for another stern examination against Crystal Palace, who have been in scintillating form on their recent travels, securing four consecutive 2-0 victories over Leicester, West Ham, Man United, and Doncaster, and they will be determined to maintain their prolific attacking rhythm in pursuit of extending their flawless away streak. As evident from their relentless attacking displays, both teams are firing on all cylinders, and we fully expect an end-to-end battle at Craven Cottage, where the nets should bulge at both ends just as it has in each of the last three meetings at this venue.
