Fulham have been one of the surprise packages in the Premier League this season, and they could move into the top six spots with an away victory against Fulham on Saturday.
The Cottagers mounted a remarkable comeback in the previous round of matches, with Harry Wilson netting twice in second half stoppage time to land a famous 2-1 win over Brentford.
Meanwhile, Crystal Palace continue to flirt dangerously with the relegation spots in the English top-flight.
The Eagles have won just once in their opening ten matches this season. However, they come into this round after avoiding defeat in their last two.
Odds
The current odds show Crystal Palace as the +159 favorites to claim maximum points on matchday eleven. An away win for Fulham is an interesting selection at +181.
