Crystal Palace vs Chelsea: match preview

In addition, the club has been left by Semenyo, Mateta may also depart, and head coach Oliver Glasner has decided to leave the team at the end of the season. Crystal Palace currently have 28 points after 22 rounds and sit in 13th place.
Chelsea are fighting for European qualification and are now close to the UEFA Champions League places. The London side have collected 34 points after 22 rounds. They are in sixth place in the table and trail fourth by just two points. The club changed their head coach at the beginning of 2026, and under the new manager they have won three of their last four matches. In every match this season, the Blues have scored at least one goal. The team will continue their push for the top four.

Prediction
Chelsea have changed their manager and now travel away to a team that is struggling for results. I think Chelsea will be able to secure a victory, and I suggest a bet on their win.
