Crystal Palace vs Fulham Prediction: Saturday, November 9, 2024, Selhurst Park will host a Crystal Palace-Fulham London derby. Palace is near the relegation zone, while Fulham is mid-table. This match could be close because both teams want to start the international break well.

Crystal Palace Fighting to Climb

The season has started poorly for Crystal Palace. Only one win in ten games puts them 17th in the league. They’ve recovered, drawing Wolves 2-2 and playing well. Palace manager Oliver Glasner has emphasized defensive toughness, but Eberechi Eze and Eddie Nketiah injuries have hurt.

A win here would boost Palace’s season and provide much-needed home support.

Fulham’s Good Start

This season is good for Fulham. In 9th place, they beat Brentford 2-1 with two late goals. Fulham excels at home but only scores five points away.

Silva’s team is confident and ready to exploit Palace’s insecurity.

Head-on History

Palace-Fulham matches are usually close. Palace has lost their last five games against Fulham, and both games last season were draws. Another close game is likely.

Probably a Draw

Both teams should fight for points. Palace wants to avoid relegation, while Fulham wants to climb the table. Palace’s defensive issues and Fulham’s poor away form suggest a 1-1 draw.

This London derby could go either way, but recent history suggests a close match with both teams sharing the points.
