Chelsea vs Crystal Palace: Post-Match Facts

  • Crystal Palace have now failed to win any of their last 14 Premier League matches against Chelsea (D1 L13), their longest ongoing winless streak against a current Premier League outfit. Today’s draw saw them pick up their first point against the Blues in the competition since October 2017, however.
  • This is only the third draw in this fixture in the Premier League in what was the 31st meeting between Chelsea and Crystal Palace (Chelsea W24, Crystal Palace W4), and the first draw since March 1995 – a 0-0 draw at Stamford Bridge.
  • Eberechi Eze has scored five Premier League goals from outside the box in 2024, the joint-most of any player along with Manchester City’s Phil Foden. All of Eze’s last three goals in the competition have been from outside the box.
  • Cole Palmer has provided four assists in Chelsea’s three Premier League matches this season, becoming the first player to provide 4+ assists in a team’s first three matches since Paul Pogba in 2021/22 (5).
