Chelsea - Crystal Palace match score prediction: Stamford Bridge power

(NLDO) - Stamford Bridge witnessed a fierce competition when Chelsea and Crystal Palace faced each other in the London derby at 8:00 p.m. today, August 17.

Chelsea performed brilliantly to win the Club World Cup last month and with good performances in two consecutive friendly wins against Bayer Leverkusen (2-0) and AC Milan (4-1), three points in the opening game of the new season are worth considering.

Good start and new recruit integrates quickly with Chelsea

It should be noted that names such as Joao Pedro, Liam Delap, Jorrel Hato, Jamie Gittens, Darrio Essugo, Estevao, Mamadou Sarr and Kendry Paez joined the Stamford Bridge team in the summer transfer window. And the interesting thing is that they all integrated quickly and showed their roles. That factor gives Chelsea a formidable strength and is difficult to predict.

On the other hand, the Eagles are full of confidence after their Community Shield win over Liverpool. However, Palace have lost eight of their previous nine meetings with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, which is perhaps the main reason why pundits are putting their faith in Enzo Maresca's side. Eddie Nketiah, Cheick Doucoure and Matheus Franca are all sidelined through injury, while Japan international Daichi Kamada is unlikely to feature for the visitors.

Chelsea used to beat Crystal Palace like it was a daily meal, but the two times they met last season, the score was a 1-1 draw. That's why many people quickly bet on the underdog when the market listed Chelsea's handicap at 1 goal, for choice. As of this morning, Chelsea's price is increasing, showing that the market is slightly pouring into the underdog. Choosing the home team is more fun because Chelsea is used to winning at Stamford Bridge.

The most popular score is still 2-1 with a 1-to-pay bet of only 8, while the score of 1-1 is also priced at 8.3 (because the last 2 meetings both had this score). Gamblers predict the score will lean towards a home win when 1-0 and 2-0 both have 1-to-pay bets of 9.2, while 3-0 and 3-1 are both priced at 12. People also predict that the match will have a goal, so the score of 0-0 is unsold with a 1-to-pay bet of up to 18, while 2-2 pays only 15.
