Fulham vs Crystal Palace Predictions

• Crystal Palace have only lost one of their last 11 competitive away games.
• Fulham have won just two of their last eight Premier League home games.
• Jean-Phillipe Mateta has scored seven goals in his last six Premier League appearances.#

Cottagers chase Europe

Fulham will be hoping to close the gap on the European qualification positions on Saturday, but they may face stern opposition against a Crystal Palace side that have excelled on the road this season.

The Cottagers’ 2-1 win over top-four hopefuls Nottingham Forest last weekend was their third successive victory by this scoreline, but they have only won two of their last eight competitive home games and more dropped points may be on the cards here.

Eagles flying high on their travels

Crystal Palace lost to a late Carlos Alcaraz goal at home to Everton last weekend, but away from home they are on a four-game winning streak and haven’t lost since a trip to Arsenal in the EFL Cup in December.

The Eagles have scored exactly two goals in eight of their last 11 competitive away games and have lost just one of these, so they look good value to take something from Craven Cottage on Saturday.

High-scoring stalemate backed at Craven Cottage

Two of these trips have ended in 2-2 draws, while Fulham have drawn four of their last six home league games and the last two of these have ended 2-2, making that an ideal correct score prediction.

Those in the market for a goalscorer option should consider Jean-Phillipe Mateta, who scored his 11th Premier League goal of the season against Everton last time out. The Frenchman has notched seven of these in his last six league appearances, including five goals in his last three away games.
