Palace wrapped up their friendlies two weeks ago with a 2-1 win over Spanish outfit Real Valladolid.
Before that, they were on a four-game winless streak across competitions — a run that saw them crash out of the EFL Cup on penalties against Newcastle United on November 9.
Palace will now return to the Premier League, where they have won their last three home games since a 2-1 loss against Chelsea in October.
Meanwhile, Fulham were held to a 1-1 draw by Premier League rivals West Ham United in their only friendly during the 2022 FIFA World Cup break.
Fulham will now turn their sight to the Premier League, where they're winless in three games, claiming one point from a possible nine. With 19 points from 15 games, Fulham are ninth in the standings, level on points with Palace, who have a game in hand.
