Preceding that game was the home draw versus Brentford that ended 1-1.Crystal Palace are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 4 goals in 3 games. Palace have conceded 4 in these home matches.
Chelsea form and stats
Things could have gone better for Chelsea in their Premier League away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.
Chelsea delivered a 1-1 draw playing at home against Salzburg in their previous match; a Champions League duel. Defender Silva was the best team player with a rating of 7.83. Silva won 7 of 8 duels.
A loss, in the Champions League away at Dinamo Zagreb, earlier.
Will there be lots of goals? This side have played 5 consecutive league fixtures all having three or more than three goals (over 2.5 goals).
A quick return to home after this game, as Chelsea are hosting Milan in the Champions League only four days away.
The attacking power of Chelsea when travelling is not overwhelming with 2 goals scored from 3 league matches away. Chelsea have conceded 5 goals in these games.
