Both Teams Desperate for Points
As Chelsea and Crystal Palace prepare to face off on Wednesday, both teams are in dire need of three crucial points. Chelsea suffered a disappointing defeat to Wolves in their last Premier League match, while Crystal Palace have been on a tough run, with their last win coming in November.
Chelsea's Recent Struggles
Chelsea, managed by Mauricio Pochettino, have had a tough time recently, with only six points from their last five games. They currently sit in 10th place in the Premier League table and will be looking to bounce back with a win against their London rivals.
Crystal Palace's Dogged Run
Crystal Palace, on the other hand, have been fighting hard but have struggled to secure victories. Their last win came against Burnley in early November, and they were denied a victory against bitter rivals Brighton in their last match, settling for a draw.
