After last nights great win, reading now Ben Mee is out for Burnley and watching West Ham v Sheffield U and Egan has been stretchered off, both big players for both clubs in our next 2 games!
What with Wilson out for Newcastle is the tide turning for us to take advantage!

We need that lot up the road to do the business for us tonight.

Be careful not to tempt providence, imagine what an injury to Andersen would mean to us.

Or 1/2 our squad having to go into self isolation something I am fearing after the Mitro situation!

Wood appears to be 50/50 for Wednesday..... Kongolo is now back from injury (not saying he's in the same league as Anderson)

I agree. I think that the only club within legitimate reach is Newcastle. In many ways its becoming a race to 34 points. Whomever gets there first stays up.
There is only one Fulham Football Club.

Anderson has not only played well, he's also shown how important a strong leader is for the team. I'd like TC to get another chance when fit, but if he does i'd want Anderson to retain the armband.

Andersen has dethroned TC as captain, plain and simple, both in leadership on the field and recent game experience. TC is  phenomenal player, but sadly, not the type of captain we need. Andersen is the type of captain we've been screaming for.

It's one weekend.

imo it's about what's done on the pitch...not "luck".  So, to answer the OP's question.   No, I don't think our luck is changing.

Teams should be making their own luck.

5 Live commentator said that palace could be in trouble, though summariser  Chris Sutton disagreed with him, and  had already said the the present bottom 3 would go down as he's often said.

But I think  other clubs could be in the mix besides Newcastle, but we have to keep getting wins though.

Palace's injury list is pretty extensive - all these out with no return date yet forecast:

James McArthur   
James McCarthy   
Connor Wickham   
Wilfried Zaha   
Jeffrey Schlupp   
Mamadou Sakho   
Wayne Hennessey   
Nathan Ferguson
James Tomkins   
The world is made up of electrons, protons, neurons, possibly muons and, definitely, morons.

Win on Wednesday and we're within 4 points of Newcastle. They are in poor form and have a really tough run in. Absolutely we can get four more points than they do over the remaining games. Game on!

And on the following Saturday we are at home to Sheffield United and Newcastle are away to Manchester United..........
