Chelsea have to get things right domestically before facing Porto on Tuesday after their shambolic thrashing at the hands of West Brom. Selhurst Park feels like one of the last places Thomas Tuchel would pick to do so but without the suspended Thiago Silva, Chelsea have a better chance of putting to bed an unfortunately timed week of turmoil. Palace have a defender enjoying the twilight of his career rather more in Gary Cahill. The former Chelsea stalwart can serve a reminder that he may have been let go a touch too soon and damage their prospects for Champions League qualification next season. Graham Searles
