Fulham 0-3 Crystal Palace - FA Cup 2024/2025 Statistical Preview

Marco Silva heads into a huge FA Cup London derby clash with at least three players missing through injury.
Kenny Tete, Harry Wilson and Reiss Nelson remain unavailable for the hosts, while Antonee Robinson is expected to overcome a knock to start.
It would be a surprise to see the Fulham boss make any changes to the starting XI that saw off Tottenham before the international break, but goalscorer Rodrigo Muniz may replace Raul Jimenez.
Sasa Lukic returns from a ban and should start alongside Sander Berge in midfield.

Chadi Riad, Cheick Doucoure and Joel Ward as Crystal Palace's confirmed absentees for this FA Cup quarter-final.
After being taken to hospital following a horror challenge against Millwall in the previous round, Palace marksman Jean-Philippe Mateta his hoping to be declared fit and available here.
Elsewhere, Oliver Glasner will likely continue with the rest of the starting XI that claimed victory over Ipswich before the break.

Prediction

A huge opportunity awaits for both sides in this FA Cup quarter-final, with a trip to Wembley as little as 90 minutes away.
Fulham head into this clash off the back of a 2-0 home victory over a struggling Tottenham side before the break.
Crystal Palace, meanwhile, were finding form before the international break, and have won six of their last seven matches.
The hosts have been largely strong at home this season, but their last defeat at Craven Cottage came against Palace just over a month ago.
At Selhurst Park back in November, though, Fulham were 2-0 winners - and prior to that - the last three meetings ended in a draw.
This one could be set to go the distance...
