In recent years, Chelsea completely overwhelmed neighboring Crystal Palace in the London derby. Accordingly, The Blues won the last 10 confrontations in all competitions. Looking at the above statistics, NHM expects The Blues to have 3 more points in the encounter tonight.

But that is just a one-way prediction from Chelsea fans and if based on actual performance, it is they who have to worry about an empty result. Remember, Chelsea are in the process of transition when they sacked coach Tuchel after only 1 month of the season. 

At this time, the Stamford Bridge team has not yet been able to enter the desired trajectory under the hands of new coach Graham Potter. Accordingly, they only got a 1-1 draw against Salzburg at home on the day of the debut of the new coach Potter. 

With erratic form and more sloppy competitive spirit, Chelsea can completely taste defeat in the London derby against Crystal Palace. This prediction is entirely possible because the home team Crystal Palace played stably when unbeaten in the last 5/6 matches.
