Chelsea have struggled under Graham Potter so far and will need to work hard to turn their campaign around. The Blues were poor against Fulham and cannot afford another debacle in this fixture.
Crystal Palace have a good squad and can pack a punch on their day but have issues to address ahead of this match. Chelsea are the better team on paper and should be able to win this game.
