Crystal Palace vs Fulham Predictions

Fulham have been the draw specialists and then can continue their unbeaten run by collecting a point at Crystal Palace.

Crystal Palace have kept 1 clean sheet in their last 7 matches (Premier League).
Crystal Palace are unbeaten in their last 4 matches against Fulham (Premier League).
Fulham have drawn 9 of the last 14 matches (Premier League).
Fulham have lost 3 of their last 14 matches (Premier League).
Fulham have seen under 2.5 goals in 13 of their last 15 matches (Premier League).

Head-to-Head

Fulham have the narrow historical edge over Crystal Palace, winning 17 and drawing 15 times in 46 games between the sides. Palace have won 14 times.

Palace have won the last 3 meetings between the sides.

The last match between the two saw Palace inflict more misery on the then bottom placed side Fulham. Ten-man Fulham scored a late consolation but it wasn’t enough to stop them losing 2-1.

Crystal Palace Form

Crystal Palace have been a bit up and down of late with three wins and three losses in their last six games.

The Eagles have kept just one clean sheet in the last seven games, which may be a cause for concern for manager Roy Hodgson.

Palace have found goals hard to come by with scoreless defeats against Leeds (2-0) and Burnley (3-0) preceded a dramatic late win at Brighton on Monday night.

Smash and grab is probably the best way to describe the win against Brighton. Despite only having only 25% of possession and conceding 25 shots on goal, Palace won 2-1 thanks to goals from Jean-Philippe Mateta and a 95th minute winner from Christian Benteke secured the points.

Crystal Palace Injuries and Team News

Palace have an injury list that can rival many others with as many as eight players set to be ruled out.

The headline absentee is the talismanic Wilfried Zaha, who remains the club's top scorer. Midfielder James McArthur and defenders Jeffrey Schlupp, Mamadou Sakho and James Tomkins.

Benteke’s goal scoring antics at Brighton could see him regain a place in the starting line-up instead of Jordan Ayew.

Fulham Form

Resurgent Fulham have really turned their season around and have a great chance of dragging Newcastle and Brighton into the relegation battle if they maintain their form.

Scott Parker's side have put together a remarkable run that has seen them lose just three of the last 14 games.

Fulham's issue has been the amount of draws as they have now shared the points in nine of the last 14 matches.

They are unbeaten in the last four courtesy of an impressive 2-0 win at Everton and a crucial 1-0 win against Sheffield United last time out. Ademola Lookman goth the only goal in the relegation six-pointer.

In between those wins was a 1-1 draw at Burnley following Ola Aina's goal.
