Chelsea will take on Crystal Palace in the Premier League at Selhurst Park on Monday. Chelsea are struggling in 11th place in the standings with 31 points from 23 games, only seven points ahead of their opponents who are 15th.
The Blues are heading into the game on the back of a solid performance and win over Aston Villa in the FA Cup. However, they lost their last two league games and are desperate for points to climb up the table. Palace's form has been worse, having managed only one win in their last five matches. Their last outing was a 4-1 defeat at the hands of Brighton.
