Crystal Palace vs Chelsea
Premier League 2018-19
Venue: Selhurst Park
N'Golo Kante's third goal of the season helped Chelsea consolidate their top four place with a narrow 1-0 win over Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.
The Frenchman struck five minutes into the second half to hand Maurizio Sarri's side all three points to move within two points of third-placed Tottenham.
But it wasn't plain sailing for Maurizio Sarri's side, who had recalled Olivier Giroud after starting Eden Hazard as a false nine in the previous four games.
