Fulham hosts Crystal Palace at Craven Cottage in Premier League action

Fulham and Crystal Palace face off at Craven Cottage on Saturday at 15:00 BST in search of their first Premier League win this season. Both clubs currently sit in the bottom half of the table following consecutive losses to open their respective campaigns. Alvaro Arbeloa’s Fulham side recently lost to Chelsea and Sunderland, while Pierre Sage’s Crystal Palace fell to Everton and Manchester City. The visitors hold a strong record at this venue, having remained unbeaten in league visits to Craven Cottage since January 2005. Fulham will be without the injured Tom Cairney, while Crystal Palace must navigate the match without Jean-Philippe Mateta, Ismaila Sarr, and Chadi Riad. Despite both clubs adding several players on deadline day, new arrivals are expected to be eased into the rotation rather than starting immediately.
