Crystal Palace vs Chelsea preview, prediction, team news, lineups and live stream

 

The Eagles of Crystal Palace will need to find their wings and fly high on Monday night when they host a revitalized Chelsea at Selhurst Park. Kickoff is at 8 PM UTC, and the atmosphere promises to be a clash of moods: Crystal Palace reeling from a recent defeat and Chelsea riding a wave of victory.

Palace, nicknamed the Eagles, are in dire need of a turnaround. Their 4-1 defeat to Brighton was their fourth loss in five Premier League matches, leaving them just five points clear of the relegation zone. Wilfried Zaha will be their key weapon, and the home crowd will be hoping to roar them to a crucial victory.

Chelsea, nicknamed the Blues, are enjoying a resurgence under new manager Mauricio Pochettino. Their commanding 3-1 win over Aston Villa in the FA Cup showed their attacking potential, with Raheem Sterling and Mason Mount in top form. They’ll be aiming to continue their winning streak and climb the table.

Possible Prediction line-ups

Crystal Palace: Henderson; Munoz, Richards, Andersen, Mitchell; Hughes, Wharton, Lerma; Ayew, Mateta, Schlupp

Chelsea: Petrovic; Gusto, Disasi, Silva, Chilwell; Fernandez, Caicedo; Madueke, Gallagher, Palmer; Jackson
