Chelsea’s slow start to the season saw Thomas Tuchel fired and replaced with Brighton boss Graham Potter. He has only led his new team in 1 match so far, the disappointing 1-1 draw with RB Salzburg in the Champions League. They will be hoping to make significant improvements in the weeks before the World Cup, starting on Saturday.
Crystal Palace have also had a difficult start to the campaign, winning just one of their opening 6 games and losing 2. Patrick Viera’s side have shown themselves capable of taking on some of the top teams though, including their recent hard-fought draw with Liverpool, and they will be hoping to cause something of an upset.
Blues goalkeeper Edouard Mendy and midfielder N’Golo Kante are both injury concerns going into the weekend. Nathan Ferguson is out for the Eagles, with James Tomkins and Chris Richards also doubts. However, James McArthur and goalkeeper Jack Butland may be able to return.
These two sides have not drawn against each other on the 22 occasions they have met in the Premier League. Chelsea have won 18 of those games, with just four wins for Crystal Palace. Indeed, Palace have lost their last 9 games against Chelsea. The Blues generally have a good record in recent London derbies too, winning 8 of their last 9 away trips in the capital. Their only defeat came at the London Stadium against West Ham last season.
Can they maintain that record and get Potter a win in his first Premier League match in the job or will Viera’s men find a rare result in this fixture? Find out by watching the Crystal Palace vs Chelsea live stream.
