Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Soccer Prediction Today
A big match for online betting is our soccer pick for England Premier League.
A Chelsea side under heavy scrutiny welcome a Crystal Palace team – which is fighting for survival – to Stamford Bridge in this 30th round of the Premier League (PL).
Palace have dropped back into the relegation zone last round after a poor run of six games without a win. However, only three points separate 13th from 18th place in the PL after 28 games, and Palace are set for what will no doubt be a nerve-racking last stretch of the season.
Conte’s Chelsea are in their own brand of trouble, after losing four of their last five PL games and conceding ten goals in the process. After their recent defeat to Manchester City, pundit Jamie Redknapp labelled Chelsea’s performance as a, “crime against football”.
Thirteen places separate the two clubs on the table, but oddly, they have displayed almost identical form in the last five games. Chelsea are the slightly better side with three points and a goal difference of -4 versus Palace’s two points and -5 goal difference.
Victory for Palace would represent their first ever league double over Chelsea, with a H2H history stretching back to 1906.
Soccer Picks Players : Chelsea’s magician Eden Hazard has 11 goals and three assists thus far. He got an assist in last season’s corresponding fixture, in which Palace stunned Chelsea to win 2-1.
For the visitors, Luka Milivojevic has scored seven PL goals so far and is in good form for Palace with four strikes in his last eight matches.
Soccer Picks Strategy: Crystal Palace have, in fact, won the last two PL games against Chelsea and three out of the last five anywhere. All of Palace’s victories have come by the score of 2-1.
Palace have been hideous without Wilfried Zaha on the pitch this season with zero points and a -17 goal difference without the winger.
England Premier League: Chelsea 1/1 HT/FT
Odds: 1.80
