Chelsea vs Crystal Palace – Chelsea is currently facing severe difficulties. They must improve their campaign as soon as possible; else they risk missing out on playing in Europe in 2023–2024.
Crystal Palace, meanwhile, is now experiencing a run of very subpar performances. They are conceding a lot of goals, and more crucially, they have a worse head-to-head record than their rival over time.
In their most recent match, which was played just three months ago, the Blues won 1-2 on the road. Additionally, they have a remarkable 11-game winning streak and have scored two goals or more in nine of those games.
What venue will host the game?
Chelsea is going head-to-head with Crystal Palace starting on 15 Jan 2023 at 14:00 UTC at Stamford Bridge stadium, London city, England.
Who will win the match between Chelsea and Crystal Palace?
After winning 11 consecutive head-to-head matches, Chelsea will undoubtedly be the favorites this weekend. And they genuinely want to win as well. This upcoming game may be the one that changes their situation.
After all, aside from their triumphs over the 16th-placed Bournemouth and the 17th-placed West Ham, Palace has a perfect winless record on the road this year.
How many goals will be scored in the match?
Neither club has been very strong on defense recently. The Blues just suffered a defeat to Manchester City after giving up four goals. In addition, they have only kept one clean sheet in their previous 11 games.
However, Palace has given up two or more goals in five of their last seven games, and they have also given up a lot of goals in head-to-head matches.
We can expect two or more goals. The main reason is that the last three meetings ended with over two match goals.
Will Both teams Score in the match?
As previously said, neither team’s backlines are doing well right now. This season, these two have hardly ever recorded a clean sheet.
In actuality, Chelsea might prevail this weekend. However, the relegation-threatened Bournemouth team was the opponent of their lone clean sheet in the previous three months. Goals are therefore anticipated to come from both ends of the field.
Chelsea vs Crystal Palace – Betting Analysis
The Blues are in desperate need of a victory this Sunday more than ever because of their outstanding head-to-head record against this opponent.
It’s possible that the struggling Crystal Palace won’t be able to mount a strong defense. As a result, picking Chelsea to Win at a 1.70 odd seems like a fantastic choice.
Then again, their defense hasn’t been very strong lately. They have recently given up a lot of goals and haven’t kept many clean sheets all season.
The desperate Palace is predicted to score at least once, making the Both Teams to Score wager at a 2.00 odd look quite appealing.
When all things are considered, Chelsea has what it takes to score the goals they require against Crystal Palace, who may find it challenging to score.
What are the best odds for this match?
In terms of the bookies’ odds on the 90 min. result market, the win for Chelsea is best priced at 1.7, a wager on the draw is 3.82 and staking on the winning team to be Crystal Palace gets you 5.15. Those are the best of the prices that can be secured as of now.
