Fulham vs Crystal Palace Premier League prediction, odds and betting offer

After coming agonizingly close to pulling off one of the Premier League’s greatest ever comebacks, Fulham quickly return to Craven Cottage for a London derby against Crystal Palace on Sunday. The hosts’ spirited second-half display ultimately fell short in a thrilling 5-4 defeat to Manchester City in midweek, while the Eagles secured a much more straightforward 1-0 victory over Burnley in Lancashire.

When Jeremy Doku’s effort deflected off Sander Berge and into the Fulham net, putting Man City 5-1 ahead, many at Craven Cottage might have been tempted to head for the exits. However, two goals from Samuel Chukwueze and a strike from Alex Iwobi sparked hopes of an incredible turnaround, only for Josko Gvardiol to deny Joshua King with a dramatic goal-line clearance in stoppage time.

That pulsating encounter saw Fulham join an unwanted group—becoming just the third team, after Norwich City and Tottenham Hotspur, to lose a Premier League home match despite scoring four times. Still, netting four goals against a Pep Guardiola side is an achievement in itself. Nonetheless, Marco Silva’s side would have preferred a hard-earned point, as they currently sit 15th in the table, five points above the relegation zone and the same distance from seventh-placed Brighton & Hove Albion. Encouragingly, nine of Fulham’s 17 points this season have come in their last five matches, and only league leaders Arsenal have kept them from scoring at home in 2025-26.

Coincidentally, Arsenal are also the only team with a better defensive record than Crystal Palace, who have conceded just 11 goals all season and kept their seventh clean sheet in midweek. Two sought-after defenders combined for the winner against Burnley, with Marc Guehi’s precise cross finding Daniel Munoz, who headed home just before the break.

Now sitting fifth, Oliver Glasner’s side are just one point behind fourth-placed Chelsea as they chase Champions League qualification—a finish that could be enough given England’s UEFA coefficient. However, inconsistency has hampered the FA Cup holders, as reflected by three wins, a draw, and two defeats in their last six league outings. The Eagles are also aiming to secure back-to-back Premier League London derby victories for the first time in over eight years.

Last season, both Fulham and Crystal Palace won 2-0 away from home in this fixture, but remarkably, the Cottagers are still searching for their first Premier League home victory over the Eagles since January 2005, when Andy Cole scored twice.
