Chelsea vs Crystal Palace prediction
Chelsea continue to be inconsistent in Premier League action with successive losses for Pochettino either side of key wins in the FA Cup and EFL Cup.
Palace’s injury issues will deprive them of some attacking spark, but Roy Hodgson’s hosts are unbeaten in their last four home matches in all competitions, and they will be ready for the battle.
Prediction: Chelsea 0-0 Crystal Palace
