Chelsea appear to have turned a corner in the Premier League, and Enzo Maresca’s side will be chasing a second straight win in the competition this weekend. Crystal Palace will be the visitors to Stamford Bridge, as they bid to end a two-game losing sequence.
Before Betting On Chelsea vs Crystal Palace
Chelsea will be looking to claim a second straight victory in the Premier League when they return to action against Crystal Palace on Sunday. The Blues have won their last two across all competitions, but things appeared to click into place in Chelsea’s dominant display at Wolves last Sunday. Maresca’s side eventually scored six goals in that success, with Noni Madueke being the star performer after netting an excellent hat-trick.
Further efforts in the success were scored by Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson, and Joao Felix. It was the first time that the Blues have netted six times on the road since a trip to Southampton in April 2022. Meanwhile, Maresca became the first manager in Premier League history to oversee a six-goal win in his first match on the road.
Hopes were high ahead of the 2024-25 season for Crystal Palace, but their expectations could have been lowered slightly after suffering defeats in each of their opening two matches at the start of the season. The Eagles have now allowed four goals across their fixtures, and there continues to be rumors linking Marc Guehi with a move away from the club before Friday’s transfer deadline.
Palace come into this round of matches after suffering a 2-0 loss against West Ham at Selhurst Park last weekend. The defeat marks the fifth time in Premier League history that the Eagles have suffered defeats in each of their opening two matches. Their chances of victory are also hampered based on the fact that they are winless in their last 13 Premier League encounters against Chelsea.
