Fulham welcome Crystal Palace to Craven Cottage in the FA Cup quarter-final on Saturday. Fulham last played in the last-eight in 2023, while Palace made it to the semi-finals in 2022.
The Cottagers overcame defending champions Manchester United in the fifth round, thanks to Bernd Leno's shootout heroics, saving the last two penalties in the shootout, earlier this month. They then beat London rivals Tottenham Hotspur 2-0 in the Premier League before the international break, thanks to late goals from substitutes Rodrigo Muniz and Ryan Sessegnon.
Palace, meanwhile, are on a four-game winning streak across competitions. They eased past Millwall in the fifth round. An own goal, a first-half strike from Daniel Munoz and Eddie Nketiah's second-half goal helped them to a 3-1 home win. They beat Ipswich Town 1-0 in their previous league outing, thanks to Ismaïla Sarr's 82nd-minute strike.

Fulham vs Crystal Palace Prediction
Fulham beat Tottenham at home before the international break, keeping their first clean sheet in nine games. They are winless in six home meetings against Palace and lost 2-0 in the Premier League last month.
Antonee Robinson was injured during the international break, so his involvement here is doubtful. Kenny Tete, Harry Wilson and Reiss Nelson are the three confirmed absentees for boss Marco Silva.
Palace, meanwhile, have won 10 of their last 15 games across competitions, with three defeats coming at home, all in the league. They have scored twice in five of their last six away meetings against the Cottagers.
Chadi Riad Dnanou and Cheick Doucoure are long-term absentees, while Joel Ward is expected to sit this one out. Jean-Philippe Mateta has received the all-clear to return to action and will wear a special mask if he features.
While both teams have been in good touch recently, considering Palace's impressive away form, expect them to eke out a narrow win.
