Fulham 2-3 Crystal Palace: Ben Chilwell scores on Eagles return

By Total Football News

In a week where Palace said goodbye to Daniel Munoz – their former attack-minded right wing-back who has now joined Nottingham Forest – Mitchell and Chilwell showed goals from wing-backs are not disappearing.

All three goals showed intent and endeavour to get forward from deep positions, though Fulham’s defence was lacking.

First, Mitchell was put through on goal by Eddie Nketiah. With his options of passing from the left limited

Crystal Palace recovered from back-to-back defeats to edge past struggling Burnley and climb to fifth in the Premier League.

The visitors’ only other shot of the first half came from Jean-Philippe

Daniel Munoz and Yeremy Pino struck in the second half to move the Eagles up to fourth with a deserved victory at Molineux.

The other three quarter-finals take place in the previous week, but the Eagles host Finnish club KuPS in the Conference League at Selhurst Park on 18 December.

Uefa’s European calendar now stretches across 10 midweeks, rather than the six as it did two seasons ago, with the Champions League, Europa League and Conference League each given a standalone week for exposure.

It has caused a huge logistical headache, with the

Crystal Palace 2-0 Brentford: Eagles end winless run in Premier League

By Total Football News

Keith Andrews had described Brentford’s recent rise up the table as a “natural evolution” resulting from his players “constantly building relationships and understanding” with one another – but the Bees were horribly disjointed once Mateta had opened the scoring.

Passes began to go astray for the visitors as the home side, buoyed by their opener, sought to press home their advantage before the interval.

The Bees then fell apart completely

Leicester City 0-2 Crystal Palace: Eagles inflict sixth straight league defeat on Foxes

By Total Football News

A clinical display from Crystal Palace inflicted a sixth straight Premier League defeat on Leicester City and increased pressure on manager Ruud van Nistelrooy.

In a game short of quality, Jean-Philippe Mateta’s opener – seven minutes into the second half – was Palace’s first effort on target.

He latched on to a through ball after a driving run from Ismaila Sarr and took a touch round the advancing goalkeeper, before

Palace’s tally of nine points from their first 13 matches represents their worst start to a Premier League season in six years, but boss Oliver Glasner will hope Munoz’s late equaliser will give his side the lift they need to haul themselves further away from relegation danger.

Despite being by far the better side against a toothless Newcastle, it looked as though the Eagles’ lack of cutting edge would come

Palace had planned for many different scenarios in the window and although they have created a reputation, with sporting director Dougie Freedman bringing in a number of talented youngsters from the Championship, they would say it’s not the only recruitment model they have.

It seemed only a matter of time before Guehi’s transfer to Newcastle was announced, on the back of his successful Euro 2024 with England.

Chelsea 1-1 Crystal Palace: Eze stunner earns Eagles a draw

By Total Football News

Eberechi Eze scored a superb equaliser as Crystal Palace drew with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

The Blues, who thrashed Wolves 6-2 last week, were the better side in the first half, with Cole Palmer firing just wide and Dean Henderson saving superbly from Noni Madueke before Nicolas Jackson broke the deadlock.

The forward finished off a fast counter by Chelsea, tapping in Palmer’s cross at the near post.
