Chelsea will be eager to bounce back to winning ways in the Premier League when they take on Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park this evening (Saturday).
Crystal Palace have once again been quite comfortable in the Premier League this season under the tutelage of Roy Hodgson, who has ensured another top-flight campaign for the Eagles.
The hosts are currently 12th on the table with 38 points to their name.
And, with 10th-placed Arsenal just four points clear of them, a top half finish might not be out of the question.
The Blues, on the other hand, have endured a roller-coaster of a 2020/21 campaign, having first blown hot and cold under Frank Lampard before beginning their recovery under Thomas Tuchel.
Chelsea have lost just once with the German manager in charge, although that was their most recent game, against West Brom in a result that has left them fifth and behind West Ham United.
Crystal Palace Vs Chelsea Lineup
Crystal Palace XI (4-4-2): Guaita, Ward, Kouyate, Cahill, Aanholt, Ayew, Milivojevic, Riedewald, Eze, Zaha, Benteke
Chelsea XI (3-4-2-1): Mendy, Azpilicueta, Christensen, Ruediger, Hudson-Odoi, Kante, Jorginho, Alonso, Mount, Pulisic, Giroud
