The Blues have lost two of their last three Premier League home games (W1), as many as they had in their previous 21 league games at Stamford Bridge before this (W10 D9), whilst also losing three of their last six home London derbies in the Premier League, including their only one under Graham Potter so far (0-1 vs Arsenal). No Chelsea manager has ever lost his first two Premier League London derbies in charge.
Palace, however, have also struggled for form recently, losing five of their last six matches across all competitions and are looking for their first victory over Chelsea since 2017 under Antonio Conte.

Chelsea vs Crystal Palace match stats
Chelsea are yet to concede a goal in the first half of a home Premier League game this season, the only side to do so. The Blues haven’t conceded in the first half of any of their last nine league games at Stamford Bridge stretching back to last season, their longest such run since March 2013 (10 in a row). Graham Potter’s side have also managed just four first half goals at home this term, half as many as they have managed in the second half (8), whilst Palace have only conceded once before half-time in their last four matches.
Jeffrey Schlupp has committed more fouls than any other Crystal Palace player this season (31), while Cesar Azpilicueta will come against the only player to be fouled 50+ times in the Premier League so far this season in Wilfried Zaha.
