Crystal Palace vs Chelsea Prediction: The Eagles could surprise the Aristocrats

Crystal Palace will face Chelsea in the ninth leg of the English Premier League. Will the Eagles be able to break their losing streak in head-to-head encounters?

Crystal Palace

After beating Aston Villa 3:1, Crystal Palace managed to pick up two points in their subsequent three Premier League appearances. They lost the lead at the Etihad and suffered a 2:4 defeat to Manchester City. The Eagles drew 1:1 with Brentford at home before losing 0:0 to Newcastle United on the road. Crystal Palace is 16th in the EPL table with six points.

Chelsea

After a 1:2 defeat at Southampton, Chelsea returned to their home ground to face West Ham United. Against the Hammers, the encounter was uneasy, but the Aristocrats managed to finish with a 2:1 win. Chelsea is seventh in the table with ten points. The Aristocrats haven't had the best Champions League group stage start. First, the London team lost away to Dinamo Zagreb (0:1), and then, when playing at home, they failed to beat Salzburg (1:1).

Expert Betting Tips

Crystal Palace will be motivated for several reasons. Firstly, they have failed to win their last three matches, and in all six appearances in the current EPL campaign, they have delighted the fans only once with a positive performance. Secondly, the Eagles are set to break their losing streak in their head-to-head encounters against Chelsea. Crystal Palace has a good chance of picking up points now, given the Aristocrats' very unstable play this season. We expect a tense match with many cards and goals in the English capital.
