An enthralling 2-2 draw with Arsenal came between two heavy defeats, with Marco Silva overseeing a 3-0 loss to Brentford and a 5-1 defeat to Manchester City.

Douglas Luiz and Leon Bailey then netted in stoppage time to complete the comeback for Unai Emery’s men. Palace will want to return to winning ways, but they have failed to beat Fulham in their last three encounters (drawing two and losing one).
