Overview

Crystal Palace enter this fixture after registering suffering a 2-1 defeat at the hands of Manchester United. The Eagles were unlucky to concede just before the break as Paul Pogba gave the Red Devils the much needed lead.

However, James McArthur's second half strike helped Palace level the score. It was Zlatan Ibrahimovic's late goal that helped Jose Mourinho's side seal three crucial points at Selhurst Park.

Palace fans are unhappy with the manner in which their side have performed under Alan Pardew's guidance. The former Newcastle United manager will be hoping his side can bounce back against the Blues.

Chelsea are on a winning streak and that was further extended when they registered a narrow 1-0 victory over Sunderland. It was former Arsenal star Cesc Fabregas' strike that was the difference between the two sides.

Antonio Conte will be targeting another win when the west London club take on cross town rivals, who have struggled so far this season.
