Chelsea heads to Selhurst Park this Sunday, looking to secure back-to-back Premier League wins.
The team is gaining momentum under new manager Liam Rosenior. They recently returned from Cyprus, where they achieved a solid 1–0 win against Pafos. Now, they are up against Crystal Palace, a team that traditionally has difficulties when facing Chelsea. A victory today would place Rosenior among a select group of English managers and keep Chelsea’s hopes for a top-four finish alive.
Chelsea Team News
Liam Rosenior is managing a team that is seeing the return of important players. Cole Palmer is back after resting a tight thigh. Enzo Fernández and Estêvão Willian have also recovered from a recent virus. This gives Rosenior a stronger squad for this challenging away match.
Robert Sánchez will be in goal, with a backline that will miss Filip Jørgensen. Benoît Badiashile and Trevoh Chalobah are likely to start as central defenders. In midfield, Moisés Caicedo aims to build on his winning goal against Pafos, partnering with Fernández to enhance the team’s control and energy. Pedro Neto and Alejandro Garnacho are expected to provide width, supporting an attack led by João Pedro.
