History of the Fulham v Crystal Palace fixture

Crystal Palace travel to take on Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday evening, hoping to improve upon an average previous return from this fixture. Of the 20 games played, Eagles have recorded 3 wins, and Fulham have come away with 10 victories.

The last time the two teams met at Fulham was just over four years ago, in October 2000, with Fulham running out comfortable 3 - 1 winners in a League Division One match.

Recent respective form guides

Fulham's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Cottagers have scored 7, a worringly large 12 have been leaked at the other end.

Crystal Palace's away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Eagles have hit 8 goals, 13 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Fulham are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 18 points from 20 matches. Crystal Palace are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 15 points from 20 matches.
