Chelsea vs Crystal Palace Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in FA Cup Predictions
Chelsea are coming from an impressive win over Real Madrid but just fell short of advancing to the Champions League semi finals. That is one more trophy gone, and they will be putting all their effort for now in the FA Cup. They are in the semi finals and will face Crystal Pace for the chance to play in the final for the third straight time. In the last five years, Chelsea have been to four FA Cup finals but won just once. They have shown they can win big games, and with the league title race stretching away from reach, this is a key game if they want to win anything this season. The last two matches have been responses to key losses, Chelsea beating Southampton 6-0 then Real Madrid 3-2. Their recent games have been high scoring, each of the last four ending in over 2.5 goals and they have scored in each of their last five matches. They have two clean sheets in their last five matches and this will be the first time they face topflight opposition in the FA Cup. Three of their four FA Cup matches this season have produced over 2.5 goals.
Crystal Palace’s seven-game winning run was ended by Leicester City in their last outing. Palace suffered a 2-1 loss, halting a run that had seen them win five of seven matches. That defeat also saw Palace concede for the first time in five matches. They’ve failed to score in just one of their last five matches, while each of their last three games has produced over 2.5 goals. Three times in the last five matches, Crystal Palace have scored two or more goals and in their four FA Cup matches this season, they have scored two or more goals. This will be the second topflight opponent that Crystal Palace gets to face, having thrashed Everton 4-0 in the last round. Palace have a very poor run against Chelsea, one that they will be looking to stop if they want to win silverware this season. They have suffered nine straight losses against Chelsea ahead of this game. In three of the last five meetings, Palace have failed to score and four of the five have produced over 2.5 goals.
