"Tight, tight games, always special games against them, we know each other really well now. When you go into the game, you know the pattern of it, you know each team's strengths and weaknesses. But we're ready, we're excited to get another chance to beat them. Obviously, a very tough and busy schedule to start the New Year with, but nothing better than three good challenges and an FA Cup tie, so we're excited."
"Palace, on the other hand, are without a win in the league since beating Fulham on December 7, leaving them 11th in the table. In that time, they were also knocked out of the EFL Cup by Arsenal, while they also failed to secure a top-eight spot in the Conference League. And to make matters worse for Oliver Glasner, he will be without Chris Richards and Eddie Nketiah against Fulham."
Fulham start 2026 with a New Year’s Day trip to Crystal Palace, followed by Premier League home matches against Liverpool and Chelsea and an FA Cup third-round tie with Middlesbrough on January 10. Fulham lost 2-1 to Palace in December, that being their third defeat to Palace in 2025, all at Craven Cottage, but have since won three straight league matches and kept two consecutive clean sheets. Sander Berge said he is excited by the tough, busy schedule and relishing the chance to beat Palace again. Palace have not won in the league since December 7 and sit 11th, with recent exits from the EFL Cup and Conference League. Oliver Glasner will be without Chris Richards and Eddie Nketiah for the Fulham match.
