Chelsea are looking to continue their momentum following their dominant victory over Wolverhampton Wanderers last week, as they prepare to take on Crystal Palace at home in the upcoming Premier League match this Sunday.

The Blues thrashed Wolves 6-2 at Molineux, bouncing back strongly from their season-opening defeat to Manchester City.

Noni Madueke stole the show with a hat-trick, while Cole Palmer provided three assists, and Joao Felix marked his second debut for Chelsea with a goal.

On Thursday, the Blues secured their spot in the Conference League, despite a second-leg defeat to Servette in Switzerland.

The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch the match, kickoff times and the latest lineup news.

Chelsea vs. Crystal Palace lineups, predicted starting 11, team news

Robert Sanchez remains Chelsea's starting goalkeeper despite a shaky performance against Man City.

Malo Gusto will be the right-back due to Reece James's unavailability, while Wesley Fofana and Levi Colwill look set to continue in central defence.

Moises Caicedo's fitness is in question but he remains crucial in midfield if fit. Noni Madueke, fresh from a hat-trick and an England call-up, aims to maintain his form, and Nicolas Jackson, who recently scored his first goal of the season, hopes to build on that momentum.

Chelsea predicted XI (4-2-3-1, right to left): Sanchez (GK) — Gusto, Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella — Fernandez, Caicedo — Madueke, Palmer, Neto — Jackson.

Injured: Armando Broja, Reece James, Romeo Lavia
Suspended: Reece James

Palace fielded a strong lineup in their midweek League Cup win over Norwich, with Daichi Kamada, Jean-Philippe Mateta, and Eberechi Eze all scoring in a 4-0 victory.

Despite the positive result, the match wasn’t without setbacks; Chadi Riad left the pitch after just ten minutes, potentially suffering knee ligament damage. Manager Oliver Glasner is uncertain if Riad will be fit for the Chelsea game.

Meanwhile, Marc Guehi’s expected transfer to Newcastle has fallen through, keeping him available to partner with Chris Richards and Rob Holding in central defence. 

Crystal Palace predicted XI (3-4-2-1, right to left): Henderson (GK) — Richards, Guehi, Holding — Munoz, Kamada, Wharton, Mitchell — Eze, Edouard — Mateta.

Injured: Chadi Riad Dnanou (doubt), Matheus França
Suspended: 

Chelsea vs. Crystal Palace prediction

With a wealth of players to choose from, Maresca seems to have quickly identified his best starting XI early in his tenure. If his side delivers an attacking display similar to what they showcased against Wolves, another three points should be within reach.

Palace, despite starting with back-to-back defeats, have shown encouraging signs. However, defensive departures and injuries have left them vulnerable, and they’ve struggled to find the same scoring touch that characterized the latter part of last season.

Prediction: Chelsea 3-0 Crystal Palace
