Crystal Palace secured their first Premier League victory of the 2026/27 season with a dramatic 3-2 comeback win against Fulham at Craven Cottage. Despite Fulham taking the lead twice through Josh King and César Palacios, Palace fought back to claim all three points.
Tyrick Mitchell played a pivotal role for the Eagles, scoring twice to level the match. Ben Chilwell, making his return to the club following a permanent transfer from Strasbourg, scored the decisive winning goal in the 76th minute. The victory marks the first Premier League win for Crystal Palace head coach Pierre Sage.
For Fulham, the defeat marks their third consecutive league loss under new manager Álvaro Arbeloa. The Cottagers remain without any points this season, struggling with defensive issues despite controlling significant possession during the match. The result leaves Fulham at the bottom of the table as they prepare to face Liverpool.
