Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As Fulham prepares to host Crystal Palace, the corner count is set to rise, and I'm keen on betting the Over 8.5. Fulham has been generating a flurry of offensive activity at home, averaging nearly 17 attempts per match, leading to 2.4 corners per game in their last five at Craven Cottage. Meanwhile, Palace has struggled on the road, conceding a staggering 2.6 goals per game and allowing their opponents to dominate the corner game. In their last encounters, both teams have a history of corner-heavy affairs, and with Fulham's aggressive style against a Palace side struggling defensively, we could see a high corner tally. Factor in Crystal Palace's recent corner stats, and it’s clear both teams will keep pushing for set-pieces. All signs point to a thrilling match full of action, making the Over 8.5 corners a smart play.
Fulham vs Crystal Palace: Fulham Draw No Bet (-167)
Odds available at fanduel at time of publishing
As Fulham prepares to host Crystal Palace, it’s hard to ignore the recent form that suggests a home advantage. Fulham's last five home outings have shown a more resilient side, with a decent average of 1.6 goals scored while allowing just 1.0 against. Their attacking prowess has been reflected in their ability to generate over 16 shots per match. In stark contrast, Palace is struggling on the road, averaging a mere 0.6 goals scored and shipping 2.6 per game in their last five away fixtures. With Fulham’s solid home record and Palace’s dismal away form, the Draw No Bet market on Fulham presents a compelling opportunity. The odds favor the home side, and with Fulham looking to turn their inconsistent form around, they should capitalize on Palace's shortcomings. Expect Fulham to take all three points or at least ensure a safety net for your bet.
Fulham vs Crystal Palace: Over 9.5 Total Corners (-141)

As Fulham prepares to host Crystal Palace, the stage is set for a high-tempo clash that could see corners piling up. Fulham's recent home games have been lively, averaging 2.4 corners per match, while their overall shots per game sit at a robust 16.8. With Palace struggling on the road—averaging a mere 0.6 goals away and conceding 2.6—they're likely to rely on defensive tactics, which often leads to more corners for the opposition as they clear their lines. Fulham’s need to push for points will only heighten their urgency, potentially leading to sustained pressure that forces Palace into defensive positions. With both teams' corner averages trending upwards—especially for Fulham at home—betting on over 9.5 corners feels justified in this matchup. Expect the corner flags to be busy as both teams battle for crucial points in the Premier League.
