Premier League LIVE: Build-up, team news and score updates


  • Fulham have won none of their last six Premier League home games against Crystal Palace (D3 L3) since a 3-1 victory in January 2005.

  • Crystal Palace won this exact fixture 2-0 in February, ending a six-game winless run against Fulham in the Premier League (D4 L2).

  • Fulham have alternated between defeat (3) and victory (2) in their last five home London derbies in the Premier League, losing 1-0 against Arsenal last time out in October.

  • Crystal Palace won 2-0 against Brentford in their last Premier League London derby – they’ve not won consecutive derby matches since April 2017 (vs Chelsea and Arsenal).

  • Fulham scored four goals for the first time in 52 Premier League matches last time out against Man City, but still ended on the losing side. It was just the second time they’d lost a home league match while scoring 4+ goals, after a 4-6 defeat to Leicester in September 1952.

  • Only Arsenal have kept more clean sheets (8) and conceded fewer goals (7) in the Premier League this season than Crystal Palace (7 clean sheets, 11 goals conceded), with the Eagles keeping a shutout in four of their last five games.

  • Since the start of last season, only Brighton (23) have had more goals scored via substitutes in the Premier League than Fulham (21, excl. own goals), with Samuel Chukwueze netting twice from the bench against Man City last time out.

  • Fulham’s Samuel Chukwueze is averaging a goal or assist every 46 minutes in the Premier League this season, scoring two and assisting three in just 229 minutes. It’s the best minutes per goal involvement of any player in the competition’s history (min. 200 minutes).

  • Three of Emile Smith Rowe’s last five Premier League goals have been headers – none of his first 15 in the competition for Arsenal and Fulham had been headed.

  • Crystal Palace’s Jean-Philippe Mateta has never scored a Premier League goal against Fulham in five games against them, his joint most against a side without a goal (also five vs Southampton). He’s had 10 shots and registered an xG of 1.52 without scoring against the Cottagers.
