Crystal Palace v Chelsea Predictions for Saturday's 3.00pm kick-off league fixture facing the Eagles and Blues at what is set to be Selhurst Park. Worst-ever start to a Premier League season for Crystal Palace means they are likely to battle relegation this term as they've gone seven games without scoring a goal, leaving it more uncertain given they're playing last season's champions.
Crystal Palace have won only 1 of their last 8 home matches against Chelsea in the Premier League, drawing 1 and losing the other 6.
Chelsea have won a total of 421 points in London derbies, which is more than any other side in Premier League history.
Antonio Conte could become the first Chelsea manager to record at least 6 consecutive Premier League away wins on 2 separate occasions.
Chelsea midfielder Cesc Fabregas is 1 goal away from becoming only the 3rd Spanish player to score 50 times in the Premier League, after Fernando Torres with 85 goals and Diego Costa with 52.
Chelsea: Thibaut Courtois - Cesar Azpilicueta, David Luiz, Gary Cahill - Victor Moses, Tiemoue Bakayoko, Cesc Fabregas, Marcos Alonso - Pedro, Eden Hazard - Michy Batshuayi (3-4-2-1 formation)
Chelsea: Alvaro Morata has been ruled out for the trip to Palace after the Spaniard picked up a thigh injury in last round's 0-1 defeat to Man City. Elsewhere, Daniel Drinkwater and N'Golo Kante are doubtful following the international break.
