Crystal Palace vs Chelsea Betting Tips

After a good start to the season Crystal Palace had a bit of a slump back in October, but Alan Pardew has guided his team back to form and they are coming into this match as favourites in my opinion.

They are enjoying a six match unbeaten streak in the Premier League at the moment, although their back to back goalless draws against Bournemouth and Swansea might be a bit of a concern.

Despite these four points that have been dropped, the impressive Palace remain in 5^th position in the Premier League, a point above Manchester United and four behind Spurs in 4^th.

Despite the sacking of Chelsea’s Jose Mourinho, the Blues have failed to make much headway as they look to dig themselves out of the huge hole they have put themselves in.

Chelsea sit in 14^th position in the Premier League, with their 20 point total leaving them just three points above the relegation zone and 15 points adrift of the top four.

They have drawn their two games under Guus Hiddink, with a 2-2 draw against Watford preceding a goalless match between them and Manchester United.

Away from home it really doesn’t look good for them. They have won just one of their last ten games on the road in all competitions and lost five times.

Crystal Palace won the meeting between these sides at Stamford Bridge, but I think they could struggle to match their two goals on Sunday. They have a number of key attacking players missing such as Bakary Sako, Dwight Gayle, Connor Wickham, and Yannick Bolasie.

Defensively they are very solid though, and I think they could definitely keep a clean sheet on Sunday. We’re going for a Crystal Palace Win or Draw Double Chance at excellent odds of 4/5, and I’m also going for a 0-0 correct score prediction at 15/2.
