London Derby Showdown: Can Chelsea Bounce Back Against Crystal Palace?

After a busy transfer deadline day, Chelsea is set to return to action on Sunday when they welcome Crystal Palace for a London derby at Stamford Bridge. The Blues made notable acquisitions, including England and Manchester United star Jadon Sancho, while several players, including Raheem Sterling, exited the club as the transfer window closed.

One of the outgoing players was Trevoh Chalobah, who is now on loan to Crystal Palace, although league rules prevent him from playing against his parent club. His arrival adds depth to the Eagles’ defense, which has managed to retain key player Marc Guéhi despite significant interest from Newcastle.

Chelsea is looking to bounce back after suffering consecutive defeats to London rivals Brentford and West Ham. They face a challenging match against a Chelsea side that recently secured a commanding 6-2 victory over Wolves in their last outing.

The match between Chelsea and Crystal Palace is scheduled for Sunday, September 1, at Stamford Bridge, kicking off at 1:30 p.m. BST. This translates to 8:30 a.m. ET, 7:30 a.m. PT in the U.S. and Canada, and a 10:30 p.m. AEST start in Australia.

For those looking to watch the game live, it will be available on Peacock in the U.S., which requires a Premium or Premium Plus subscription for access. Fans outside the U.S. may consider using a VPN to bypass geo-restrictions and stream the match.
