How each side is likely to approach the game. Confirmed line-ups are released about an hour before kick-off.
Home
Crystal Palace
Selhurst Park, London
Crystal Palace are a mid-table side who are hard to beat at home but can struggle to create against organised defences, which keeps their games tighter.
Away
Chelsea
Stamford Bridge, London
Chelsea are among the title contenders. Expect them to control possession away at Selhurst Park and push Palace back, so their chance count, and the corners market, tends to run high.

Betting notes
How to bet on Palace vs Chelsea
Four angles to weigh before you place a bet on this fixture.
- 01
Derbies bring more fouls and bookings. The model's card range is 4.5-5.5, above the usual Premier League average.
- 02
The model leans towards a tight game: under 3.5 goals at 75%. If the first 30 minutes stay goalless, in-play unders usually get even shorter.
- 03
Powerplay247 is an exchange: you can back or lay every market on Palace vs Chelsea and trade out in-play, for example after an early goal, instead of waiting for full time.
- 04
The draw is live at 27%. Draw-no-bet on Chelsea (54% on the two-way split) protects your stake if the game ends level.

Match preview
Crystal Palace host Chelsea at Selhurst Park, London, in the Premier League 2026/27. It is a London derby, so form counts for less than usual and the game tends to be tighter and more physical.

The most likely half-time score is 0-0 and the predicted full-time score is 0-1. Line-ups are confirmed about an hour before kick-off, and team news is the biggest single mover of the price on Powerplay247.
