Comments:
This was the first time that Fulham had lost a home game on the opening weekend of a league season since 1989 against Tranmere Rovers in League Division Three. This was the newly-promoted Whites' first home league defeat since 31 October 2017 against Bristol City (played 15, won 12). This was Fulham's 500th home game in the top division. They had now conceded 301 goals in home games in the Premier League (played 248, scored 349).2 Crystal Palace
