Crystal Palace Preview – Can Palace move into top half?
A welcome 2-1 win away from home against arch-rivals, Brighton, on Monday night handed Crystal Palace a much-needed three points and also prevented their recent back-to-back losses becoming three defeats on the trot.
Defeats against Leeds United and Burnley had seen Palace slip down the Premier League table but the win at Brighton will be a massive boost ahead of this tricky all-London lunchtime affair against Fulham on Sunday.
Results at Selhurst Park this season have been inconsistent though as Crystal Palace’s home record of 4-3-5 14/21 indicates, and having won just twice in their last eight matches at home, the goals market appeals here; seven of Palace’s 12 home matches have resulted in under 2.5 goals and they also have some key personnel missing such as Sakho and Mcarthur while Saha is rated doubtful.
Fulham Preview – Can Fulham continue revival?
Despite still remaining in the bottom three of the Premier League, Fulham have put together a four-match unbeaten run in the English top flight with draws against West Ham and Burnley along with wins over Everton and Sheffield United.
These recent results have kept Fulham’s survival hopes alive and they trail fourth from bottom side, Newcastle United by just three points so there’s everything to play for at Selhurst Park on Sunday lunchtime.
Perhaps most impressive of all, Fulham are now unbeaten in their last six matches on the road which consists of five draws and one win, but they’ve made themselves hard to beat while nine of Fulham’s 12 away matches have also resulted in under 2.5 goals.
