Crystal Palace, Recent FormCrystal Palace will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 0-0 result against Newcastle United last time out. They achieved 48% possession in that match and had 19 strikes at goal, with 9 hitting the target, up against Newcastle United's tally of 23 efforts at goal, 6 of which were on target.
Patrick Vieira will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 9 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. They have not been performing well at all defensively, not delivering a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 matches.
They have shown a solid run of form lately at Selhurst Park, which has seen them go unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 home matches while registering 3 victories from the same run.
On an individual basis, Wilfried Zaha will be looking to get on the scoresheet again at Selhurst Park having scored 5 goals in Crystal Palace's last 6 home games in the league.
Chelsea, Recent FormChelsea enter this game with a comfortable 2-1 home win over West Ham United last time out in the league. Their share of possession in that meeting was 69%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 3 of which were on target, in contrast to the numbers reached by West Ham United, who had 6 shots on goal with 3 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 8 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 9 and seen valuable points lost. Up front, they have been showing a certain level of consistency in breaching their opponents' defences, with goals netted in 5 of their last 6 outings. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
They're experiencing a bit of an unwelcome spell of form away from home, having lost 3 of their last 6 on the road and picking up only 2 wins.
On an individual basis, Raheem Sterling will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Chelsea's last 6 league games.
The last time these sides were pitched against each other in the league, it ended in a 0-1 win for Chelsea.
During the last 2 times these two teams have met in the league, Palace have been unable to break through The Blues' defence and find the back of the net. The Blues will be confident of finding the net in this one against Palace, with an impressive scoring record of at least 1 goal in their previous 16 encounters between the two sides. In the previous 5 matches between these sides, Chelsea have shown they know their way around The Eagles defence having scored 15 times against them in those 5 matches.
Undefeated in their last 9 league encounters against Palace, Chelsea have dominated this fixture in recent times, winning the last 9 times in a row.
With 3 goals notched up from the last 3 league meetings against Palace at their home ground Selhurst Park, Chelsea man Christian Pulisic will be looking for more of the same in this one.
Palace manager Patrick Vieira has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Jack Butland (Broken wrist), Nathan Ferguson (Foot), James McArthur (Groin) and James Tomkins (Muscle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
There is only really one injury concern for the Chelsea manager Graham Potter ahead of this clash, with N'Golo Kanté (Hamstring) missing out, which gives Potter a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
