Fulham Vs Crystal Palace Preview
After a poor start to the season, Alvaro Arbeloa was one of the frontrunners in the next Premier League manager to leave market. However, the Spaniard has overseen a mini-revival of late. Back-to-back 1-0 wins against Hull and Coventry have seen the Cottagers rise to 15th. In the EFL Cup, Arbeloa’s men beat West Ham and Wimbledon to reach round four.
As far as Crystal Palace are concerned, Pierre Sage is very much on thin ice. The French boss has mustered just two Premier League wins from his eight games so far this season. Across their last five games, Palace have shipped 13 goals and are hovering just above the drop zone. Sage’s side beat Middlesbrough last time out to set up Wednesday’s clash.

Meanwhile, Crystal Palace have been given a major boost in the form of Dean Henderson. The England goalkeeper is set to make his first start in ten having recovered from an ankle injury.
