Crystal Palace are flying high after their win over Fulham in the FA Cup quarter-final but now attention turns to their league form.

Their turnaround from the beginning of the season has been excellent and since the start of 2025, only Liverpool (11) have won more games in all competitions among Premier League sides than Oliver Glasner's Palace (10).

The Eagles have lost just twice in their past 15 games - which is all the more impressive when they have only managed to win three games at home in the league all season.

Palace are just two points from Brentford in 10th and eight points away from seventh-placed rivals Brighton who they play on Saturday.

There have been interviews with players in which they reference that they feel they can challenge for those European places, but if Palace are to do that then they will need to continue their run of good form against excellent opposition.

In the last 10 games of the campaign, Palace play eight of the current top 10 sides in the league.

As mentioned, they have only won three games at home all season and their style of play seems to suit when they come up against teams away from Selhurst Park.

However, against some of the sides they are going to face, Palace will not have as much possession as usual, which could suit them when looking at their defensive record this season.

No side has kept more than the eight clean sheets Palace have since the beginning of the year.

Every game in the Premier League is tough but Palace, if they are able to pick up some more impressive results, could have an exciting end to their league season to go with their cup run.
