Chelsea and Crystal Palace will meet again in the Premier League Week 19 at the Stamford Bridge Stadium, London Wednesday, December 27, 2023. Live streaming information, how to watch, match previews and lineup predictions can be found in this article.
Chelsea, a team based in London, has shown a very volatile and difficult to predict performance this season. They have shown the ability to beat strong teams like Tottenham with a score of 4-1 and hold defending champions Man City to a draw with a score of 4-4. However, they have also experienced defeats from teams below them such as Brentford and Everton.
However, it appears this pattern of erratic performance has come to an end. Under the tutelage of coach Mauricio Pochettino, Chelsea managed to achieve a 2-0 victory over Sheffield United on December 16, which moved them up to 10th position in the standings. A few days later, they achieved another victory by beating Newcastle on the penalty spot, which took them to the semi-finals of the English League Cup.
However, this joy did not last long. On Christmas Eve, Chelsea suffered a bitter defeat at Wolves’ field with a score of 1-2. This defeat leaves Chelsea stuck in 10th place with 22 points, only 10 points ahead of the teams in the relegation zone, even though they have played one more game.
On the other hand, Crystal Palace is also experiencing difficult times. They are currently on a run of 7 consecutive matches without a win, including the last two draws against Brighton and reigning champions Man City.
In terms of team news, Chelsea will be without Raheem Sterling and Cole Palmer who are banned after receiving their fifth yellow card at Molineux. Moises Caicedo, Enzo Fernandez and Lesley Ugochukwu are all doubts for midfield, while Reece James and Robert Sanchez are two of the many injured players.
Over at Crystal Palace, they could welcome back Sam Johnstone after his calf problem. Eberechi Eze is also set to return to the starting line-up.
According to several analysts about this match, Chelsea’s home record is the basis that makes them think about achieving victory over Crystal Palace, who have a record of 7 consecutive matches without a win.
Chelsea have a record of 12 consecutive wins over Crystal Palace, and have won the last 6 matches against them at Stamford Bridge. This shows that Chelsea has a big chance to win in this match.
