Fulham's campaign got off to the worst possible start when they conceded to neighbours Chelsea just 30 seconds into their opening match. Defeat by the Blues was followed by another at Sunderland and while there will be no panic at the Cottage as new head coach Alvaro Arbeloa is still settling in, fans might be aware that only twice before have Fulham lost their first three games of a top-flight campaign (1951-52 and 2020-21). Fulham have also struggled against Palace in recent years, winning just two of their last 13 Premier League matches against the Eagles (D6, L5), with neither victory coming on home soil.
Derek McInnes admits he took "a huge sigh of relief" when the summer transfer window closed and hopes it will bring "clarity and calmness" to Rangers. In total, the Ibrox club signed 14 players, with striker Kevin Kelsy and winger Badredine Bouanani arriving on Thursday shortly before the deadline. McInnes described this summer as the "longest window I've ever known" and is glad all the dealing is over for now.
