EPL: Chelsea vs Crystal Palace: Team news, injuries, possible lineups

Chelsea will take on Crystal Palace on Sunday evening at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League fixture.

The West London club head to the game following a 4-0 victory over Burnley last weekend.

Chelsea boss, Maurizio Sarri will welcome back forward, Eden Hazard in his squad after the Belgian missed the Blues’ last two games with a back injury.

Sarri will have to decide who to start between strikers, Olivier Giroud and Alvaro Morata.

The Italian will also decide who gets the nod in the midfield between Ruben Loftus-Cheek and Cesc Fabregas.

Meanwhile, Crystal Palace head to the game following a 2-2 draw with Arsenal last weekend.

Palace have won two of the last three Premier League meetings between these two sides, including a 2-1 triumph at Stamford Bridge in April 2017.

The visitors are sweating over the fitness of star player Wilfried Zaha, who missed the Carabao Cup defeat to Middlesbrough due to a shoulder injury he picked up against Arsenal last weekend.

Zaha is expected to recover on time, but Christian Benteke and Joel Ward remain sidelined for Palace.

Chelsea’s potential starting XI: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Rudiger, Luiz, Alonso; Kante, Jorginho, Barkley; Willian, Morata, Hazard

Crystal Palace’s potential starting XI: Hennessey; Wan-Bissaka, Tomkins, Sakho, Van Aanholt; Townsend, Kouyate, Milivojevic, McArthur; Ayew, Zaha
