Premier League, Saturday, 27.04.2024
A landmark game awaits us on Saturday afternoon when the Cottagers take on the Glaziers.
It’s a London derby, after all, and it’s not just about the intensity. The visitors could also finally rid themselves of all relegation worries.
That’s why my Fulham Crystal Palace betting tip is for a close game, but with goals on both sides
It’s been another quiet season for coach Marco Silva’s side, one in the gray midfield. That should certainly be seen as a success.
Because in the last decade, the Lilywhites have been known as a team in the elevator. They are just as unlikely to go up as they are to go down
However, for all the solid work they have done so far, they must be careful not to lose their cool in the last few meters of the season.
After all, they’ve won just one of their last five games, losing three of their last four (1S).
However, recent opponents Liverpool (1:3) and Newcastle United (0:1) were tough opponents to overcome.
They lost both of these matches in front of a home crowd. For the first time since the 2020/21 season, when they lost six home games in a row between March and May, they are on the verge of three home defeats in a row.
If we also look at the predictions of the betting providers we tested, we find a slight favorite role for the Cottagers in the Fulham Crystal Palace betting tip.
On the one hand, this could be due to their current strong derby record. On the other hand, they have struggled against the Eagles in recent years
First of all, let’s start with the small crisis of form they are currently experiencing against the south Londoners. They haven’t won against the Eagles in four home games (2U, 2N).
The visitors will now be looking to maintain the form of recent weeks. With three wins in a row against Liverpool, West Ham and Newcastle, their form is certainly presentable.
With another win at the weekend, Oliver Glasner could finally lead his team out of the bottom of the table and into a secure relegation spot
And even if there was a surprising 1-0 win at Anfield Road recently, the Glaziers’ away record has not always been so exhilarating.
The victory marked the end of a drought of ten away games without a win (4U, 6N). Therefore, caution should still be exercised in the Fulham Crystal Palace betting tip.
For example, a double chance bet for the visitors is a good option. Merkur Bets predicts odds of around 1.80 should the South Londoners not lose
On the other hand, the Cottagers have a good derby record. They have won four of the last five capital city duels (1N).
That is important to note, as it has not been the norm in the recent past. After all, that’s how many wins they’ve managed in the previous 44 games combined!
On the other hand, Michael Olise was often of great importance for the Eagles. The Englishman has scored in each of his last three London derbies (4 goals).
If he scores a fifth goal, you’ll find odds of just over 3.00.

However, one Olise alone does not bring three points. The visitors are currently in very good form and have the momentum on their side, but that’s no guarantee.
The Cottagers, on the other hand, can play freely and have shown that they can be on the ball in the capital duels.
My Fulham Crystal Palace tip is therefore: Both teams will score!
