FULL-TIME: FULHAM 2-3 CRYSTAL PALACE
90'
highlight
ANOTHER CHANCE GOES BEGGING FOR FULHAM!! The hosts have had more than enough opportunities to salvage a point today, if not win the game. This time it's Bassey who launches the ball into the box, finding the head of Garcia. Muniz then gets a slight touch before it makes its way through to Larsson at the back post, but the latter can only scuff the ball into the hands of Henderson. Larsson HAS to be doing better there.

Wow, that is so poor from Sessegnon. He initially does well to win his side a corner down the left, but somehow kicks the ball out of play when he steps up to take it and Palace are awarded a goal-kick. Palace will be delighted, but the home fans are furious.

GOLDEN CHANCE FOR MUNIZ!! Fulham continue to chase a late equaliser as Iwobi frees King down the right. The latter then plays the ball back across to Muniz, but the Brazilian is unable to hit the target with his right foot, and the ball sails over the crossbar.
86'
highlight
FULHAM GO CLOSE!! Henderson is called into action to deny Muniz, who latched onto a tame Sessegnon shot in the box. The ball then falls back to Sessegnon, but he's unable to fire it inside the near post with his right foot, and can only find the side-netting. More frustration for the hosts.

Chilwell has now scored in each of his two Premier League appearances for Crystal Palace, against Fulham today and in his last game of his previous spell in May 2025. The defender scored against Wolves that day.
84'
comment
All of a sudden, it's Palace who look threatening as Kamada briefly finds himself through on goal. It comes from Andersen failing to read the flight of the ball, allowing Strand Larsen to nod Kamada through. Bassey recovers well to stop the latter in his tracks, though, before the linesman's flag goes up for offside against the Japan international.

Fulham bring off Iwobi, who is replaced by Muniz.

Fulham look incredibly promising in attack, but they're far too clumsy at the back. That will continue to be a huge thorn in their side this season if they don't tighten up.

Goal 2-3
WOW!! PALACE ARE SOMEHOW IN FRONT!! Chilwell marks his debut with a goal after more scrappy defending by Fulham. The move starts with a lovely through ball from Yeremy Pino, who finds Khalaili in the Fulham box. The latter then rounds Henderson but loses his footing, before Andersen gets across to block Kamada's follow-up effort. The ball then falls kindly to Chilwell, who volleys it home with his left foot. What a game! Fulham 2-3 Crystal Palace!

Fulham have now had 25 touches in the Palace box since the break. That's five times the amount the away side have had in theirs (five). Palace have offered absolutely nothing so far in this second half.

Palace surely have to make more changes soon. They've hardly threatened in this second half.

The home side threaten again as Berge finds Iwobi out on the left. The latter then crosses towards Bobb, but he loses his footing at the crucial moment and drags the ball a few yards wide. Another chance goes begging for Fulham.

Iwobi wins a corner down the left as Richards turns the ball behind. Iwobi then steps up to take it, but is forced to watch as Henderson punches the ball clear before Fulham are penalised for a foul in the box.

comment
Fulham are looking incredibly fluid in the final third and are moving the ball well around the Palace box. They just need that final bit of quality to unlock the away side's defence for a third time.
66'
comment
Fulham have had 14 touches in the Palace box since the break, while the visitors have only had five in theirs. It's the hosts who have looked sharper in the second half, yet the score remains 2-2 as the game heads into the final 25 minutes of normal time.

Today marks the first time Mitchell has scored twice in the same game in his career. They could be crucial goals for Palace, too, who are still looking for their first point of the season.

Fulham make their first change as Berge comes on in place of Palacios, who scored his side's second goal of the game.

Palacios goes close as he looks to bend a ball into the top right-hand corner with a curling effort. There's not enough bend on the shot, though, and the ball flies behind for a Palace goal-kick.

HENDERSON SAVES AGAIN!! Fulham have responded well to Palace's equaliser and almost retake the lead as Castagne finds Bobb in the penalty area. The latter then cuts inside before shooting with his left, only for Henderson to palm the ball away. Richards eventually turns it behind for a Fulham corner, but nothing comes of it and Palace survive.
58'
comment
Bobb and King have been at the heart of everything good for Fulham today and combine again on the right flank. King then works an angle for a cross, but can only fire the ball straight into the grateful hands of Leno, who gathers it comfortably.

CHANCE FOR PALACIOS!! Fulham almost retake the lead immediately as Bassey frees Robinson down the left. The latter then crosses and finds Palacios waiting in the box, but the Fulham midfielder can't find a way past Henderson with his right foot and Palace clear the danger.

Goal 2-2
OH MY WORD!! MITCHELL HAS A SECOND AND PALACE ARE LEVEL!! It's almost slapstick at the back for Fulham, who fail to hold onto a lead for the second time in this game. Kamada starts the move with a lovely cross-field pass to find Mitchell, whose left-footed shot almost falls to Yeremy Pino in the Fulham box. Garcia then tries to hook the ball clear, only for it to ricochet off Mitchell and bobble into the Fulham net. It's scrappy, but Palace will take it. Fulham 2-2 Crystal Palace!

Fulham have already had three shots since half-time. They have to make this pressure count.

ANOTHER CHANCE FOR FULHAM!! The home side continue to threaten as King combines well with Charles in the Palace box. The ball is then returned to King, who shoots with his right, but Timber gets across to make a crucial block. Fulham have looked dangerous since the break.

CHANCE FOR FULHAM TO BAG A THIRD!! The hosts go close to extending their leas Bobb wins a corner down the right. Bobb then delivers a curling cross onto the head of Garcia, which is blocked, before the ball falls to Palacios in the Palace box. The latter then swivels before shooting with his right, but Palacios can only drag the shot wide and Palace just about survive.

Palace have the ball in the net as Kamada slides it across for Strand Larsen to tap home, but the Japanese midfielder is quickly flagged for offside, and the goal won't count.

Today is the first time since May 2014 that Fulham have had two players aged 21 or younger score in the same Premier League game. The last time saw Cauley Woodrow and Chris David get on the scoresheet for the Cottagers, also against Palace.

comment
Fulham recorded 1.7 xG in the first half compared to the measly 0.27 put up by Palace. And although the visitors are unbeaten in their last seven visits to Craven Cottage, the Opta supercomputer is giving Fulham a strong 68.7% chance of victory at the break. The Palace win comes in at just 10%, while the draw currently sits at 21.3%.
half_time summary
The half-time whistle goes as Fulham take a 2-1 lead into the break. It's been an exciting first half, with both sides looking capable in the final third while also looking incredibly vulnerable at the back. It was Fulham who struck first on 11 minutes, when Bobb cut the ball back to King in the Palace box, allowing the latter to find an angle and fire a deflected shot beyond Henderson. Palace thought they'd equalised three minutes later through Kamada, only for VAR to quickly rule the goal out for offside. Still, the Eagles persisted and soon drew level when Mitchell beat Leno at his near post with a crisp left-footed effort on the 35-minute mark. Fulham refused to lie down, though, and were back in front seven minutes later when Palacios tapped home from close range to score his first goal for the club.

Palace have now conceded two or more goals in their last nine Premier League matches for the first time in their history. The visitors have shown positive signs on the front foot, but are far too leaky at the back right now.

Goal 2-1
PALACIOS!! FULHAM RETAKE THE LEAD!! And once again, all credit has to go to King, who does incredibly well down the left flank. The Fulham youngster beats Richards with a superb turn before driving and crossing into the box. Canvot initially makes contact and almost turns the ball into his own net, forcing Henderson to palm it away, but Palacios lies in wait to tap it home with his right foot. It's scrappy, but Fulham will take it! 2-1 to the hosts!

Goal 1-1
MITCHELL!!!! PALACE ARE LEVEL!! They've looked dangerous on the front foot, and the visitors finally get their reward. It's poor defending by Fulham, as Nketiah hooks a simple ball around the corner for Mitchell to run onto down the left. The Palace full-back then drives into the box before firing a left-footed shot beyond Leno at the near post. Great finish! Fulham 1-1 Crystal Palace!

WHAT A SAVE FROM HENDERSON!! Fulham almost have a second as Bobb works his way in from the right before finding Castagne in the Palace box. The latter looks to divert a left-footed effort towards the near post, but Henderson reads it well to palm the ball away before Palace clear the danger. That was a decent chance, but it remains 1-0 to the hosts.
32'
comment
The away side win a free-kick in the Fulham half after Castagne is penalised for tugging at Kamada's shirt. Yeremy Pino steps up to deliver an inviting cross, which briefly bounces around before Nketiah swings a wild left leg at it. The shot falls several yards wide, but Canvot is eventually ruled offside anyway.

Palace have conceded at least two goals in each of their last eight Premier League matches – they’ve never done so in nine league matches in a row in their history. Will that change today?

Fulham have already had seven shots in this match, though King's strike on 11 minutes remains their only effort on target.

CHANCE FOR PALACIOS!! Fulham launch another attack as Bassey looks to release Garcia behind the Palace defence. Disasi looks as though he's snuffed out the danger with a sliding tackle, though, only for the ball to fall back to Garcia, who tees up Palacios in the Palace box. The latter opts to shoot first-time, but once again Disasi gets a block in and the chance goes begging.

This game has been an enthralling watch for the neutral so far. Both sides look dangerous when they get forward.

Fulham finally get forward themselves as King bursts down the right flank. King then does brilliantly to spot Bobb in the box, who swivels to find an angle for a shot. And he does shoot, but Khalaili is there to partially clear it, although the effort looked to be going wide anyway. Palace survive, but Fulham will need more of that if they're to widen the distance between themselves and their London rivals.
23'
highlight
GREAT GOALKEEPING FROM LENO!! Once again, Yeremy Pino almost drags Palace back into it as he's freed down the right by Khalaili. The Palace number 10 then picks out Nketiah with a superbly weighted pass across the Fulham box, looking for Nketiah. He then looks to poke the ball past Leno and into the net, but the Fulham goalkeeper races out just in time to smother the chance, and the danger passes.
22'
comment
It's been such a strange response from Fulham, who have played second fiddle ever since going a goal up. Palace continue to assert themselves and record another shot on goal as Mitchell finds Timber. He then takes a touch before shooting from range with his right, but can only drag the ball wide.
22'
comment
Yeremy Pino has been superb so far for the visitors. The Spaniard's delivery in-and-around the penalty area have been near perfect.

Palace continue to threaten on the front foot as Yeremy Pino plays a lovely cross-field ball out to Khalaili on the right. The latter then cuts inside before shooting with his left, but can't quite squeeze the ball inside the near post and Fulham are awarded a goal-kick.

Only Junior Kroupi (13) and Rayan (seven) have more Premier League goal involvements since the start of last season among teenagers than Josh King (five - three goals, two assists). Perhaps King will add more to that tally today.

WHAT A SAVE BY LENO!! Palace have certainly responded well to going a goal down and draw a fine save out of the Fulham goalkeeper. It's Richards who lets fly from just outside the Fulham box after being teed up by Disasi, but Leno did brilliantly to watch it through before gathering the ball in his hands.

King has now scored two goals across his three Premier League games this season, after netting just once in his previous 40 for Fulham. The youngster has certainly hit the ground running for the hosts.

VAR
PALACE EQUALISE...OR DO THEY?! Just minutes after going a goal behind, Palace think they've hit back through Kamada, but the offside flag is up! It was a lovely move, too, by the visitors, as Yeremy Pino fizzes in a brilliant cross before Kamada taps home with his right foot. What a goal that would've been!

GOAL!!!! KING GIVES FULHAM THE LEAD!! King has impressed for Fulham so far this season and grabs his second goal of the campaign. The move starts with Charles, who frees Bobb down the right. The latter then cuts the ball back to King, who works an angle before letting fly with his left foot. The ball takes a nick off Canvot before nestling past Henderson, and Fulham get off to a strong start at Craven Cottage! Fulham 1-0 Crystal Palace!

Iwobi is making his 100th Premier League appearance for Fulham in this match, becoming just the fifth player to hit that milestone for three different clubs in the competition (also 100 for Arsenal, 123 for Everton). Gary Speed (Leeds, Newcastle, Bolton), Rory Delap (Derby, Southampton, Stoke), Gareth Barry (Aston Villa, Man City, Everton) and James Milner (Aston Villa, Man City, Liverpool) are the other players to do so. It's a remarkable achievement by the Nigerian.

Fulham win an early corner down the left as Richards turns Robinson's cross behind. Iwobi steps up to take it, but his cross has far too much on it and sails over everyone's heads before bobbling behind for a goal-kick on the opposite side.

It's been a hotly contested start to this match, as you'd expect in a London derby. Possession has been evenly shared, too, with both sides seeing 50% of the ball so far.

Castagne records the first effort on goal in the game as he's found by Andersen just outside the Palace box. Castagne takes a touch to steady himself before shooting with his right, but the effort was always bending away from goal and Palace are awarded a goal-kick.

Both of these sides are looking to avoid a third successive defeat in as many matches at the start of the new season. Palace boss Pierre Sage has never lost three league games in a row across his entire managerial career.

Fulham have won just two of their last 13 Premier League matches against Crystal Palace (D6, L5), with both wins coming at Selhurst Park in 2022-23 and 2024-25. Palace have also won six of their last 10 away London derby matches in the Premier League (D3, L1), which is as many as they had in their previous 44 (D15, L23). After defeat to Manchester City last time out, Crystal Palace are looking to avoid losing their opening three Premier League matches of a campaign for the first time since 2017-18.

comment
Crystal Palace have also struggled under a new manager so far. Pierre Sage’s men have lost both of their two league matches to Everton and Manchester City, conceding six goals in the process. The Eagles do have a decent record at Craven Cottage, though. Palace lost their first away Premier League game at Fulham in 2004-05 but have since been unbeaten in seven at today’s venue (W4, D3).
comment
It’s been a difficult start to the new season for Fulham, who have lost both of their first two matches under new manager Alvaro Arbeloa. Fulham fought hard before losing 3-2 to Chelsea on the opening weekend, before suffering a 1-0 loss at Sunderland on matchday two. Only in 1951-52 and 2020-21 have they lost each of their first three games in a top-flight campaign, and were relegated on both occasions. The Cottagers are also looking to avoid losing three successive Premier League London derbies for the first time since April 2023, after losing 3-0 to Arsenal in May and to Chelsea on matchday one this season.
