    Crystal Palace 2-1 Chelsea

    FYI - Palace's first goal has been given as an own goal to Cesar Azpilicueta.

    They all count when you're a Palace fan.

    Crystal Palace 2-1 Chelsea

    Palace waited 731 minutes for a Premier League goal - and now they've got two!

    Willian lost possession and Zaha's skill as he advanced into the penalty area was something else. Did you really mean that dummy? Either way, great skill which created a one-on-one with the goalkeeper and it was then a really cool finish.

    We really do have a game on our hands!

    Wilfried Zaha (45 mins)

    He's back!

    Wilfried Zaha makes a wonderful weaving run into the box after being set up by Mamadou Sakho and he slides the ball past Thibaut Courtois.

    Roy Hodgson is going mad in the dugout! He is loving life!

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Last-ditch defending from Scott Dann! The Palace captain comes to the rescue after Hazard tries to poke home. Joel Ward got his body on the floor to block the initial shot.

  7. CLOSE!published at 41 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Joel Ward impedes Eden Hazard and Chelsea earn a free-kick on the edge of the area.

    Willian and Cesc Fabregas line it up. The latter takes it... and it bends just past the corner of the crossbar! Close again.

  8. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 40 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Davide Zappacosta enters the field in place of the injured Moses. Another injury blow for the champions.

  9. CLOSE!published at 40 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Andros Townsend has loads of space and he hits a fierce strike from just outside the area. It whistles past the target, but it was a decent effort.

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Victor Moses has a problem. He's on the floor holding his hammy.

    There were no players around him when it happened, he just pulled up and winced.

    Chelsea are going to be forced to make a first-half change.

  11. Postpublished at 35 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Marcos Alonso receives the ball in the centre of the box after a Victor Moses ball in but Joel Ward clears for a Chelsea corner.

    That comes flying in and although Batshuayi gets a head on it, he can't turn it in.

  12. Postpublished at 33 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    The resulting corner comes to nothing and although Townsend picks up the ball again in the box, he can't wriggle away from the white shirts around him.

    The Palace number 10 has looked really lively so far.

  13. Postpublished at 31 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Jeffery Schlupp clatters into Willian and Chelsea earn a free-kick just inside Palace's territory.

    After some neat passing, Bakayoko plays a loose ball aimed at Marcos Alonso and it rolls out.

    Now Andros Townsend fires up the burners and sprints down the right flank. Corner to Palace after David Luiz's block.

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Michy Batshuayi takes a swipe at Julian Speroni's goal but the Chelsea forward is flagged for offside.

    We've gone down to a snail's pace now after an entertaining first half an hour.

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Although Chelsea have the lion's share of possession at the moment, Palace are doing well to close out any danger.

    Jeffery Schlupp tidies up from the latest Chelsea punt forward.

  16. Postpublished at 26 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    The Chelsea fans have found their voice now in the away end, while the nerves appear to have crept in at the home end.

    The visitors start another patient build-up from Thibaut Courtois.

    Willian and Hazard combine on the left and Cesc Fabregas tries to loop a delicate ball in over the top, but it's cleared.

  17. CLOSE!published at 22 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Wilfried Zaha gets his tricky feet into action and lets fly across goal. His shot takes a slight deflection and out for a corner.

    The corner comes to nothing, though.

  18. Postpublished at 20 mins

    Crystal Palace 1-1 Chelsea

    Crystal Palace immediately go back on the attack and although Scott Dann is waiting at the far post for an in-swinging corner, he can't convert.

    That's a stab to the heart of Crystal Palace.

    Chelsea have upped their game having been woken up by conceding the opener. Horrible lack of marking by Palace, a good header down from Bakayoko who wanted it more, and we're all square.

    A free header, seven yards out, and disastrous from Palace.

    Tiemoue Bakayoko (18 mins)

    That didn't last long.

    From Chelsea's first corner of the match - taken by Cesc Fabregas - Tiemoue Bakayoko rises high and heads down past Julian Speroni. It was a pretty easy take.
