Key Factors
Crystal Palace's decimated defense, missing key starters like Daniel Munoz, Chadi Riad, and Cheick Doucoure, will struggle to contain a Fulham attack led by Harry Wilson, who has seven goal involvements in his last six games.
The combination of Jean-Philippe Mateta's seven-game goal drought and the absence of Eddie Nketiah and Ismaila Sarr (AFCON) leaves Palace with minimal offensive threat against a Fulham side that has kept four consecutive clean sheets at Selhurst Park.
Psychological momentum heavily favors the visitors, as Fulham enters on a three-match winning streak while Palace is in 'freefall' with three successive league defeats and a historical inability to win this fixture at home (no home win in the last nine H2Hs).
Injuries & Absentees
Crystal Palace are severely weakened with Daniel Munoz (knee), Daichi Kamada (hamstring), Cheick Doucoure (knee), and Eddie Nketiah (muscular) sidelined, while Ismaila Sarr is at AFCON. Fulham is missing Rodrigo Muniz (hamstring) and the Nigerian trio of Iwobi, Bassey, and Chukwueze (AFCON).
