Maurizio Sarri has wasted no time in stamping his authority on the Blues, but they have been held up by three draws in their last five games.
Palace have struggled for goals this term and have just two wins from their opening ten games.
But Roy Hodgson's side have a great recent record at this ground, having won two out of their last three visits.
What time is kick-off?
THIS Premier League clash is set for Sunday, November 4.
Kick-off at Stamford Bridge is at 4pm.
Last season, the Eagles made the short journey west but returned empty-handed after a 2-1 defeat.

Things get underway at 3.30pm, whilst you can always stream the action by purchasing a Sky Sports Day Pass from NOW TV for as little as £7.99.
