Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Preview

Chelsea

Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea burst into life in the second round of matches in the Premier League after netting six times on the road against Wolves. That was the perfect response by the Blues following an opening-day loss against Man City and an underwhelming European display against Servette. 

Noni Madueke was the standout star in the success for Chelsea, netting a first professional hat-trick at Molineux. All three goals were set up by Cole Palmer, who also netted his first goal of the season on the stroke of halftime. 

Recent Form (all competitions, most recent first) W-W-L-D-L
Key Players to Watch Cole Palmer, Noni Madueke
Team Strengths Excellent selection of scorers in the team
Team Weaknesses Questions to answer defensively
Injuries and Suspensions Moises Caicedo (Knock) Romeo Lavia (Hamstring) Axel Disasi (Groin)

Crystal Palace

There were big expectations surrounding Crystal Palace before the start of the season following a strong end to the previous campaign under Oliver Glasner. However, those expectations have been dampened slightly after suffering back-to-back defeats at the start of the 2024-25 season. 

We will probably know more about their chances following Friday’s transfer deadline, as the Eagles are fighting for the long-term services of Marc Guehi. But, an improved performance will be expected at the very least on Sunday after disappointing in a 2-0 home loss against West Ham on Saturday afternoon. 

Recent Form (all competitions, most recent first) L-L-D-W-W
Key Players to Watch Eberechi Eze, Marc Guehi
Team Strengths Young and pacey attacking players.
Team Weaknesses Could be forced to play an unrecognised defensive line.

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Head-to-Head Statistics

It is important to note before making a Chelsea vs Crystal Palace prediction that the Blues have won their last 13 Premier League clashes with the Eagles. That includes a 2-1 success in this exact fixture last term. Palace’s last win against the Blues was recorded at Selhurst Park in October 2017.

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Player Focus

With all the attention on outgoings at Stamford Bridge over the last seven days, Noni Madueke put in an excellent performance at Molineux to put forward his claim to replace Raheem Sterling on the Chelsea wing. 

The England U21 star netted a stunning hat-trick at Wolves, and he will need to continue that high-performance level to keep hold of his starting place following the arrival of João Félix

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Tactical Analysis

Palace have attempted to attack teams in their opening two matches of the season, but they have found themselves far too open in a defensive regard. 

For that reason, Glasner could take a more defensive approach for this fixture against Chelsea on Sunday. 

Palace could be at their best on the counter-attack against a shaky Blues backline, which should make for an entertaining clash at Stamford Bridge this weekend. 

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Prediction

  • Football pick: Chelsea & Both Teams To Score
  • Odds: 2.86 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Chelsea 3-1 Crystal Palace

The dominant record of the home side is hard to overlook when making a Chelsea vs Crystal Palace prediction this weekend. However, it is also hard to dismiss that both teams have scored in three of their last four meetings. 

Chelsea’s defensive structure still needs to improve, meaning we could see Palace getting joy on the counter-attack. But, the Blues could prove too clinical in the final third for their rivals. 

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Betting Tip

  • Football Pick: Joao Felix To Score
  • Odds: 2.87 (22Bet)

João Félix netted on his Chelsea return at Wolves last weekend, and he could be set to make a difference once again this weekend. 

The Portuguese international has scored five goals in 17 Premier League appearances for the Blues, and he could be set to be the difference-maker once again on Sunday.
