Crystal Palace vs Chelsea - Premier League: TV channel, team news, lineups and prediction
- Crystal Palace host Chelsea in the Premier League on Monday night
- Blues can move into top half with victory depending on results elsewhere
- Chelsea have won last 13 meetings with Eagles in all competitions
Chelsea will be looking to build on a successful midweek trip to Villa Park when they visit Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Monday night.
The Blues shrugged off heavy defeats to Liverpool and Wolverhampton Wanderers with an impressive display in a 3-1 victory over Aston Villa on Wednesday as Mauricio Pochettino's side booked their spot in the FA Cup fifth round. However, there have been plenty of false dawns for Chelsea this term and they will need to show the same desire they did in the Midlands this Monday.
Crystal Palace also shipped four goals in the Premier League last weekend, suffering a humiliating defeat in the A23 derby against Brighton & Hove Albion. Roy Hodgson is hanging on by a thread in the dugout, with some key players absent for the visit of Chelsea to Selhurst Park this Monday.

Crystal Palace vs Chelsea score prediction
The Blues needed a last-minute winner to beat the Eagles at Stamford Bridge earlier this season and despite an impressive result midweek, you never truly know what Chelsea side will show up on any given day.
However, with the quality in their squad, Palace's poor form and the fact that Chelsea have won their last 13 meetings with their London rivals, you would fancy Pochettino's men to earn themselves back-to-back victories.
Prediction: Crystal Palace 0-2 Chelsea
