#4 Defending champions Chelsea look to compound Crystal Palace woes
No goal scored, 7 games lost, 13 goals conceded and top striker out for an indefinite period; it looks very bleak for Roy Hodgson and his Crystal Palace side.

Defending champions Chelsea will look to bounce back from their insipid performance against Manchester City a fortnight ago and will be mindful of falling behind further to the Manchester sides.
Coach Antonio Conte will be without star striker Alvaro Morata, so Michy Batshuayi should get the nod to lead the attack while Roy Hodgson will be hoping the Blues will be distracted by the upcoming UEFA Champions League match against Italian side AS Roma.
With goalscoring looking even more of a herculean task, given the injuries to star forwards Wilfred Zaha and Christian Benteke, a clean sheet will be as valuable as a win to Palace.
