Emile Smith Rowe and Harry Wilson scored to give Fulham victory at Selhurst Park.

The result put Fulham, who are seventh, level on points with fifth-placed Chelsea, who play Arsenal on Sunday.

Crystal Palace, who had Daichi Kamada sent off in the 76th minute for a reckless challenge on Kenny Tete, were well beaten. 

Smith Rowe opened the scoring in first-half stoppage time after a mistake by Palace defender Maxence Lacroix.

Smith Rowe ran onto Raul Jimenez’s pass and fired past keeper Dean Henderson.

Smith Rowe had a goal disallowed for offside in the second half, but Wilson, whose stoppage-time brace won the west London derby against Brentford, scored just after coming on as a substitute, slotting home after being released by Alex Iwobi. 


Fulham: Leno, Tete, Andersen, Bassey, Robinson, Pereira (Cairney 82′), Berge, Nelson (Wilson 82′), Smith Rowe (Reed 88′), Iwobi (Traore 88′), Jimenez (Muniz 75′)
