Will Chelsea avoid a slip-up when they travel to face Crystal Palace? The Blues have struggled on the road against London rivals as of late. Catch Chelsea's final game of 2018 versus Crystal Palace on NBCSN in the USA.

Current form: Crystal Palace vs Chelsea

Crystal Palace come into this game unbeaten in their last three games, and recently picked up a scoreless draw against Cardiff City on Boxing Day. As a result, the Eagles are relatively clear of the bottom three, with a seven-point gap proving to be a solid buffer for Roy Hodgson's side as they prepare to welcome Chelsea to Selhurst Park. It's worth noting the last time Crystal Palace took on Chelsea at their home ground, they earned a surprise 2-1 win, and they will be looking to pick up back-to-back wins against Chelsea for the first time in league play.

To that end, Chelsea have never lost back-to-back away fixtures against Crystal Palace in the league, and Maurizio Sarri's men will certainly do their utmost best to avoid dropping any points in their final match of 2018. With Arsenal being held to a 1-1 draw against Brighton and facing a tough test against league leaders Liverpool, the Blues will look to take advantage of this to further solidify their spot in the top four. However, Chelsea have struggled in away fixtures against fellow London rivals, failing to win their last five, and thus this game could potentially present a banana peel for the visitors, who notably lost 3-1 to Tottenham earlier this season in their travels.
