Top of the league: Reviewing Palace U18s' season so far

Crystal Palace Under-18s have excelled themselves in their first season as a Category 1 outfit, sitting top of the Under-18 Premier League South after 11 matches.

The young Eagles managed to leapfrog Fulham to sit top with a 4-1 victory over the Cottagers in their first game of 2021.

It's tight at the top and there are still 13 of 24 matches to play but, almost halfway through their first season at this level, the Under-18s have exceeded expectations.

They began 20/21 with a win against Southampton before narrowly losing to Arsenal. Their first major scalp came shortly afterwards, however, with a 1-0 win away to Chelsea.
