Follow all the action from Selhurst Park
Follow live coverage as Crystal Palace face Fulham today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:
Crystal Palace vs Fulham
Palace look to be readying some changes as Oliver Glasner looks to get his side back into this game sooner rather than later. They are extremely lucky that this game is still only 1-0 to Fulham.

Pereira has another go at Henderson, this time from outside the box. His powerful effort was tipped over again by Henderson, who was still trying to shake off that strike from Pereira only moments before.
Crystal Palace vs Fulham
WHAT A SAVE! Iwobi clipped a ball through a tiny gap towards Pereira, and the Brazilian smashed a ball at Henderson, and it ended up hitting him square in the face. He looks mildly shaken up, but what a save it was.

That is such a reprieve for Palace, and the fans can sense that too. They have been given a lifeline to get back into this game, and that was proof of how easily Fulham can open teams up.

GOOOAL! IT’S TWO! Smith-Rowe scores again and Fulham go two ahead! It was a brilliant, quick break from Fulham where the ball was spread out to Iwobi on the wing. He played a low ball across the face of goal and Smith-Rowe bags his second with a finish at the back post. 2-0 to Fulham! The VAR are checking for an offside on Smith-Rowe, however.

NO GOAL! The VAR have given offside against Smith-Rowe as the ball was played across by Iwobi! That was an extremely tight call, but the score goes back to 1-0!

A small period of Palace pressure ended after Sarr committed a very soft foul on Bassey. The Palace fans are not happy with the decision, but it was a needless challenge from their forward.

CHANCE! A ball through from Sarr plays Munoz in behind the Fulham defenders, and he takes way too long to shoot and Leno comes out to smother the chance. That’s a good start to the second period by Palace.
