Chelsea vs Crystal Palace
I am betting Chelsea -1.5 goals here they will want to get their season off to a good start and their forwards will want start the season with a bang with the return of Lukaku to Stamford bridge. They were in midweek action beating Villarreal on penalties but that 120 minutes should stand to them today v Palace. Palace may improve this season but I would have question marks over the manager Patrick Viera who really did not set the world alight with hi last job in European football with Nice in France. I make Chelsea value but Palace are without Eze and Michael Olise has picked up a back injury and both those are negatives for Palace, I think Chelsea with their mean defence and forward who will be very motivated are a bet -1.5.
