The Blues enter the clash with just one win in nine Premier League games as they welcome the Eagles to west London. Graham Potter saw his first win as Chelsea boss come against Patrick Vieira’s men and he will be keen to quickly add another.

Conor Gallagher’s 90th minute winner earned the Blues three points at Selhurst Park, while Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang recorded his first Chelsea goal. Neither have been in favour in recent weeks, although they will be in contention to start given the pressures of Chelsea’s injury record.
The Eagles come into the game with just one win in their last four Premier League matches having been defeated 4-0 by Tottenham in their last fixture. Like Chelsea, their last victory comes via a 2-0 win over Bournemouth.
