Comments:

League position: 10th . Crystal Palace remained without a win in their seven games in the Premier League played on a New Year’s Day (lost three). . The Eagles avoided losing four consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since March 2023 (four). . Marc Guehi became the 12th player to make 150 Premier League appearances for Palace, and their fourth defender after Joel Ward (306), Tyrick Mitchell (188) and Scott Dann (164).

Comments:

League position: 11th . Fulham had now drawn one of their last seven league games played on a New Year's Day (won two). This was the Whites’ first draw in the Premier League since the visit of Manchester United on 24 August 2025: longer than any other team currently in the division. . They had now named 11 different nationalities in their starting XI for the 17th time in the Premier League: the joint-most of any side in the competition's history (also Arsenal, Newcastle United and Watford).
