Crystal Palace vs Chelsea Score Prediction 

 

Crystal Palace will have been buoyed by their 2-1 win over Southampton earlier this week, but don’t have a great record against Chelsea at Selhurst Park. Indeed, the Blues have won their last six visits to Palace, and despite their poor form to see out 2024; they should feel confident about returning to winning ways here.
