The Expected Lineup For The Chelsea And Crystal Palace Match A lot Of Absences Hit The Chelsea
Chelsea host Crystal Palace on Wednesday in a meeting between two Premier League sides struggling for form.
M.Pochettino was left lamenting another desperately wasteful display as Chelsea slumped to a 2-1 defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Christmas Eve. It was the club's 19th league loss of the calendar year, a tally no other side in the division can top.
Roy Hodgson may have insisted that he doesn't feel the pressure but Palace's seven-game winless sequence cannot have been easy to swallow.
