Chelsea face Crystal Palace in the English Premier League on Sunday. <\/a>The Blues have lost two of their four matches in all competitions under Enzo Maresca. Palace have lost both of their league matches this term after six wins in seven to finish last season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chelsea\u2019s final 15 league matches of last term saw just one loss. It was 10 wins and two draws at home in the final 12 EPL matches at Stamford Bridge to\u00a0finish last season. To start this campaign, the Blues lost 2-0 at home to Man City in Enzo Maresca\u2019s first match as coach.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After beating Servette 2-0 at home in the Europa Conference League qualifying first leg, they went to Wolves and won 5-2. Chelsea dominated the second half, having 61% possession and scoring three goals. On Thursday night, Maresca\u2019s side were beaten 2-1 in Switzerland by Servette. They qualified 3-2 on aggregate though.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reece James remains suspended for Chelsea and Romeo Lavia is an injury doubt. Pedro Neto is also carrying a knock and may not start. Joao Felix is available after a debut goal at Wolves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Noni Madueke should keep his place down the right wing. With Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson in central areas, there is only room for one of Neto, Felix, Christopher Nkunku, or Mykhailo Mudryk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Enzo Maresca\u2019s side will look to dominate possession. Nothing less than a win will do from this home match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chelsea have looked very open this season and will give Palace some space to use counter attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n Palace ended last season in incredible form. Their final seven league matches saw six wins. That streak included a 1-0 win at Liverpool, thrashing West Ham 5-2 and beating Man Utd 4-0. On the final day, they won 5-0 at home to Aston Villa in an incredible set of results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This season began with a late 2-1 loss at Brentford. Last weekend, they hit the woodwork twice and had 14 shots in a 2-0 home defeat to West Ham. A 4-0 win in midweek at home to Norwich in the Carabao Cup restored some confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Coach Oliver Glasner looks set to make two big signings on deadline day. Wolfsburg center-back Maxence Lacroix is set to sign for \u00a318m and could be registered in time to play. Young defender Chadli Riad is set to be absent with a knee injury.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Arsenal striker Eddie Nketiah is nearing a move for around \u00a330m and could be on the bench. Matheus Franca is doubtful in attack. Daichi Kamada may start after scoring vs Norwich. Marc Guehi will start if his move to Newcastle doesn\u2019t materialise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/p>\n\n\n\n This Palace team is enterprising and exciting but can also absorb pressure in a back five.<\/p>\n\n\n\n They need a point in the league and would take a draw at Stamford Bridge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Chelsea<\/strong> have won 10 of their last 13 home matches <\/p>\n\n\n\n Chelsea have a great record against Palace and some serious firepower to call upon. I see the hosts conceding but having enough to take the win. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Chelsea face Crystal Palace in the English Premier League on Sunday. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":19,"featured_media":526980,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","beyondwords_generate_audio":"","beyondwords_project_id":"","beyondwords_content_id":"","beyondwords_preview_token":"","beyondwords_player_style":"","beyondwords_language_id":"","beyondwords_title_voice_id":"","beyondwords_body_voice_id":"","beyondwords_summary_voice_id":"","beyondwords_error_message":"","beyondwords_disabled":"","beyondwords_delete_content":"","beyondwords_podcast_id":"","beyondwords_hash":"","publish_post_to_speechkit":"","speechkit_hash":"","speechkit_generate_audio":"","speechkit_project_id":"","speechkit_podcast_id":"","speechkit_error_message":"","speechkit_disabled":"","speechkit_access_key":"","speechkit_error":"","speechkit_info":"","speechkit_response":"","speechkit_retries":"","speechkit_status":"","speechkit_updated_at":"","_speechkit_link":"","_speechkit_text":""},"categories":[969],"tags":[283,40,120,1301,5,1202,925],"yoast_head":"\nChelsea Form<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n
