Chelsea
Chelsea could remain largely unchanged from the side that beat Wolves, with Mykhaylo Mudryk the only obvious candidate in danger of losing his place in the side.
Pedro Neto did not travel to Geneva, but he replaced the Ukrainian at half-time at Molineux and could be given a full debut after laying on Joao Felix for Chelsea's sixth goal.
None of the players brought into the side against Servette on Thursday are likely to retain their spot, but Madueke and Enzo Fernandez were surprise inclusions from the beginning and should start again.
On the injury front, Romeo Lavia is currently sidelined with a hamstring injury, and Reece James is still on the comeback trail with a thigh issue while also currently serving a suspension from last season.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Sanchez; Gusto, Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Madueke, Palmer, Pedro Neto; Jackson
Crystal Palace
After going with a very strong lineup in midweek against Norwich, Palace may stay largely unchanged, with Eze, Mateta and Adam Wharton all featuring from the start.
Matheus Franca remains out injured, and he is now joined on the sidelines by Chadi Riad, after the new signing was forced off after just 10 minutes in midweek.
Riad's injury presents a problem for Glasner, especially after Joachim Andersen's departure, but Marc Guehi is staying despite intense interest from Newcastle United.
Sam Johnstone has left for Wolves meaning Dean Henderson is now assured of the number one jersey this season, but Matt Turner is arriving from Nottingham Forest to provide competition and cover.
Crystal Palace possible starting lineup:
Henderson; Clyne, Guehi, Richards; Munoz, Wharton, Hughes, Mitchell; Kamada, Eze, Mateta
Prediction: Chelsea 2-1 Crystal Palace
