Nketiah Steers Palace Past Fulham and Into Carabao Cup Quarter-Finals
Carabao Cup·October 29, 2026

Eddie Nketiah was the difference as Crystal Palace beat Fulham 1-0 in their Carabao Cup tie to book a place in the quarter-finals. In a tight London derby on the road, one moment of quality from the forward was enough to settle it, and Palace move on while Fulham's cup run comes to an end.
For boss Sage, the win is a useful result. Away wins against a local rival are not easy to come by, and a place in the last eight gives the club another competition to target as the season goes on.
Fulham now turn their attention back to the league, where they will want to turn cup disappointment into a quick response.
