Chelsea FC
A 14-minute hat trick from Madueke and three from Cunha, Larsen, and Felix walloped the Foxies with a 6-2 victory when the Blues paid them a visit at Molineux Stadium. That was a very comforting comeback from their opening game setback which was lost to the Citizens though the performance is still in a quest to be improved following the minor errors noted on their play that was well covered by clinical finishing from their strikers. They have created a very promising record of dominance against Crystal Palace and maybe they might manage to punish them even harder for their sloppy game depicted in the first 2 rounds.
Crystal Palace
They already lost their first London derby to the Hammers and now is time to get tested for correction in the second London Derby away from home. Crystal Palace experienced a very frustrating limited flow of goals and late they could not manage to count any number on the scoreboard when they were Hammered by West Ham. The trip to Stamford Bridge might be the same if they do not check their sloppy defending as they have been struggling to get the desired results from Chelsea.
Six points are gone, a very intimidating alert on fighting to stay away from danger zones. They have no illness excuse as almost the full squad is available to bounce back from this misery except França who is experiencing a broken rib. Game ON
