Cottagers looking to build on late Brentford win in another London derby
What you need to cut from your bedtime routine to sleep better
Crystal Palace are looking to build on what was a promising if somewhat frustrating week when they host Fulham in the Premier League this weekend.
The Eagles had been having a mostly miserable start to the season before claiming their first win of the campaign by beating Tottenham 1-0 last month before overcoming Aston Villa 2-1 to book their spot in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.
