  • Liverpool midfielder to join Tottenham Hotspur?
  • Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Crystal Palace, Cole Palmer starts

  • The Blues are currently sixth in the table with 34 points, and they can temporarily move to fourth in the standings with a victory over the Eagles.

    Ahead of the game, manager Liam Rosenior could make multiple changes from the 1-0 win over Pafos in the Champions League in midweek.

    Formation: 4-2-3-1

    Predicted Line-up:

    Robert Sanchez has been an undisputed starter in the Premier League and he is expected to retain his place between the sticks.

    Rosenior is set to pick his strongest backline for the London derby.

    Reece James, Wesley Fofana, Trevoh Chalobah and Marc Cucurella are poised to make up the back four against the Eagles.

    Similarly, Rosenior should choose his best midfield. Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez are expected to start in the centre of the park.

    Cole Palmer should line up in the number 10 position.

    Out wide, it could be Pedro Neto and Alejandro Garnacho once more, while Joao Pedro is likely to get the nod over Liam Delap upfront.

    Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Crystal Palace: Sanchez; James, Fofana, Chalobah, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Neto, Palmer, Garnacho; Pedro.
