Daniel Munoz has been left out of the Crystal Palace squad taking on Fulham in the Premier League this afternoon.
Palace are looking to move back inside the top four with an away win at Craven Cottage against Marco Silva’s side.
However, Oliver Glasner’s side were dealt a major blow before kick-off after Munoz was ruled out of the clash due to a knee injury.
The Colombian wing-back has been ever-present for the Eagles in the league so far this campaign, and scored the winner in their 1-0 win over Burnley in midweek.
Nathaniel Clyne comes in to replace the 29-year-old, with Palace’s official website stating that Munoz is ‘nursing a minor knee injury’.
