I wonder what a Roman Abramovich party looks like? The Chelsea owner, as you would expect, is at Stamford Bridge this afternoon.

Crystal Palace cannot be under estimated today. With the likes of Yannick Bolasie and Wilfried Zaha, they have plenty of attacking threat and it is the latter who forces a corner on the left.

"This is total domination by Chelsea, they are playing with confidence. You get the sense Mourinho told his side not to take things for granted and the way they are playing they are definitely not taking anything for granted."

Stamford Bridge is bathed in sunshine. The fans are sporting their blue colours and singing their favourite Chelsea songs. The club look in the mood to win the title in style, but can Crystal Palace spoil their efforts? No real chances for either side yet.

Wasted. Didier Drogba goes for goal but, from 30 yards, his low strike hits the wall and the ball is cleared.

Now the Blues earn a free-kick 30 yards out on the left. They will fill the box with their big men...

A dominant start from the hosts as, after a neat passage of play, Cesc Fabregas's cross is almost met by the head of Didier Drogba. Goalkeeper Julian Speroni gathers but he could be a busy man this afternoon.

Chelsea starting XI: Courtois; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry (c), Azpilicueta; Cuadrado, Matic; Willian, Fabregas, Hazard; Drogba.

Crystal Palace starting XI: Speroni; Mariappa, Dann, Delaney (c), Ward; Ledley, McArthur; Puncheon, Mutch, Zaha; Bolasie.

Will Chelsea win the title today? We are about to find out.

Max Baggins-Craig: Both great, but one difference: Pacquiao moans, if injured why fight?, Jose wouldn't moan. That'd be interesting to watch, ding ding.

Pandu: If you like entertainment then go watch Pacquiao and Arsenal, if you love winning watch Chelsea and Mayweather

Here come the teams.

John Terry leads Chelsea looking fully focused as the Stamford Bridge faithful greet their heroes like champions.

Win today and they will be.

Crystal Palace boss Alan Pardew hopes his side can keep the Premier League title race going by beating Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

The Blues will win the title with a win, while Palace are safe in 12th despite two straight defeats.

He said: "We need to respond following our recent defeats, for ourselves and to keep the title race interesting.

"We've got to try to produce a performance that doesn't get carried away in the emotion of the day."

How's this for a stat. Jose Mourinho has coached Chelsea in 95 Premier League games at Stamford Bridge, losing just one. Yes, you did read that right.

The Blues are unbeaten at home in the league this campaign.

There is an expectant atmosphere around the place as we approach kick-off. Chelsea fans believe they will be celebrating the title in a little more than 90 minutes time.

John Murray will be at Stamford Bridge as Chelsea take on Crystal Palace (13:30 BST) followed by live coverage of Manchester City's trip to Tottenham (16:00 BST) with former Spurs manager David Pleat.

Mark Taylor: Mayweather vs Pacquiao. Its Chelsea vs Arsenal. Boring but get results. Exciting to watch but don't always deliver. Palace KO.

Matt Coppins: Can't help but think that all these pictures of "Champions 2014/15" memorabilia being flaunted around already is tempting fate.

James Swift: Chelsea on the whole are worthy champions this year plain and simple.

April was a great month for goals. Five of this month's eight candidates came on a single day.

Ex-England winger Trevor Sinclair: "Chelsea are not boring, in the first-half of the season they played outstanding football and no one could live with them and they went top of the league. Then they have had injuries in a few positions and lost Costa. But they have a great shape about them and keep clean sheets and win by the odd goals. It is fantastic for the manager and players and the fact people think they are boring won't bother them."

There's an excellent selection of title T-shirts on offer around Stamford Bridge this afternoon, including this one which offers a nod to those suggestions that Jose Mourinho is overly defensive.

Jose to drive the bus on a victory parade, perhaps?

Former Chelsea boss Ruud Gullit has been pulling no punches when discussing Jose Mourinho's methods this season.

"His team is boring when, in my opinion, the players he has deserve much better. Mourinho deserves his negative label because of the calculated way he makes Chelsea play," Gullit said in the Mirror newspaper., external

"I find it astonishing, because his players are capable of brilliant football, as we saw on Wednesday for a brief moment when they were losing 1-0 at Leicester and were suddenly forced to put their foot on the accelerator.

"You could see their hunger to attack and the joy that playing like that brought to the players. They loved it. They were sparkling. Then, as soon as Chelsea were winning 2-1, Mourinho wanted to bring on Kurt Zouma, the defensive midfielder, to keep everything close up."
