What channel is Crystal Palace v Chelsea Premier League match on? Kick off time and latest team news- 10 April 2021
Chelsea head to Crystal Palace seeking to bounce back from their defeat to West Brom last weekend.
Chelsea will hope Wednesday’s Champions League win over Porto has successfully banished the memory of their defeat last weekend and boosted morale in time to face Crystal Palace on Saturday.
The Blues lost 5-2 to West Brom in their previous Premier League encounter, ending Thomas Tuchel’s 14-game unbeaten start to his reign at Stamford Bridge.
The loss means the Blues now have just eight Premier League fixtures to claw their way into the top four and the valuable Champions League spots for next season.
Palace, meanwhile, are sitting comfortably mid-table, and know that one more win will take them over the fabled '40-point mark', usually seen as the level at which a team avoids relegation.
Roy Hodgson’s men earned a 1-1 draw at Everton last time out and could pose problems for Tuchel, who will also have one eye on the Porto reverse leg next Tuesday.

Our prediction: Crystal Palace v Chelsea
Chelsea’s loss to West Brom last weekend can be put down to Silva’s early dismissal, and all being well, the Blues should have no issue winning here – even with the Eagles boasting Wilfried Zaha and Eberechi Eze in their ranks.
Tuchel should have enough firepower in his side to deal with Palace, but what the boss needs is strength in defence to manage the game properly.
N'Golo Kanté may well be introduced to settle the nerves.
Our prediction: Crystal Palace 1-2 Chelsea (17/2 at bet365)
