Crystal Palace v Chelsea (12:30 GMT)
How do you stop the Premier League's top scorer Diego Costa?
Alan Pardew thinks he might have the answer, and that answer might be Damien Delaney, who has recently won his place back in the Crystal Palace side.
"We've always had great admiration for Costa," said Pardew.
"We won there last year and Delaney had one of his best games for me against Costa that day, and he's going to have to do a repeat performance because the guy is at the top of his game.
"We had Zlatan Ibrahimovic the other night, Costa this weekend, so my centre-halves will have had a real test and that's what's great about the Premier League."

This winning Chelsea run will end at some point and I think it will end when they are away from home.
A point would be a great result for Crystal Palace and, although it will mean Chelsea drop a couple of points, it will not be a serious setback.
