Opposite number Patrick Vieira will be taking charge of his first ever Premier League game after replacing Roy Hodgson as Eagles manager over the summer.
There was a time when Crystal Palace were a constant thorn in the side of Chelsea, but the Blues have now won all the teams’ last seven meetings.
What time does Chelsea vs Crystal Palace kick off?
Chelsea vs Crystal Palace takes place on Saturday, August 14.
The match is a traditional 3pm kick-off.
It will be held at Stamford Bridge.
A full capacity stadium will watch Chelsea vs Crystal Palace following the removal of all restrictions in England on July 19.
Is Chelsea vs Crystal Palace on TV and can I live stream it?
Unfortunately Chelsea vs Crystal Palace will not be broadcast on television due to the UK’s 3pm blackout rule.
This rule was scrapped temporarily when matches were played behind closed doors but is now back in force.
