Chelsea suffered a poor end to 2024 and travel to Selhurst Park on Saturday looking for a Premier League win over Crystal Palace to start the new year with three points. Enzo Maresca's side lost to both Fulham and Ipswich Town and are now 10 points behind league leaders Liverpool who also have played one game less despite the Blues winning eight consecutive games post-November internationals.

Arsenal head to Brighton in the Premier League this evening with renewed optimism. While the Gunners have laboured in recent weeks, their 3-1 win over Brentford on New Year’s Day cut the gap on leaders Liverpool to six points.

Tottenham Hotspur need a win at home to Newcastle United on Saturday to take some pressure off of manager Ange Postecoglou as 2025 gets underway in London. Spurs drew with Wolverhampton Wanderers in their final English Premier League game of 2024 while the Magpies saw off Manchester United.
