Crystal Palace v Fulham Betting Tips [23 September 2023]

Crystal Palace will seek to get back to winning ways on Saturday when they host fellow Londoners Fulham in the English Premier League. The two teams are tied on seven points after five rounds of play with Palace in ninth and Fulham 10th in the table. Crystal Palace were defeated 3-1 away to Aston Villa last weekend to see a three-match unbeaten run come to an end. Roy Hodgson’s men have struggled on the defensive end this season and have conceded seven goals in their last three matches. On the offensive end, however, goals haven’t been a problem. Palace have scored in all but one of their six fixtures across all competitions this season. The Capital club had won two matches on the trot before going down to Villa.

Fulham are coming to this weekend off the back of a 1-0 success at home to strugglers Luton Town. The win was the right response to their 5-1 drubbing by leaders Manchester City right before the September international break. Marco Silva’s men have also been decent on the offensive end but have struggled to keep clean sheets. They have conceded 10 goals in the league, a tally topped by just two other teams. With Saturday’s match being a London Derby, chances are that Fulham will be breached again. Fulham are unbeaten in three meetings with Palace and picked up four points from a possible six last season.

Our prediction for Crystal Palace v Fulham is for over 2.5 goals to be scored in the match. Palace and Fulham haven’t been dominant on the defensive end this season and have soaked in goals at a high rate. Their porous defences have us convinced of a high goals outcome here.
