Chelsea secured a convincing 3-1 victory at Crystal Palace, moving into the Premier League's top four. Goals from Estevao, Joao Pedro, and an Enzo Fernandez penalty sealed the win. The result was compounded for Palace by Adam Wharton's second-half red card, leaving them on an 11-game winless run.

Liam Rosenior's side capitalized on Palace's defensive errors, with Estevao's solo strike setting the tone. The win highlights Chelsea's superior cutting edge, while Palace's struggles continue under Oliver Glasner, who remains eight points clear of the relegation zone despite the poor form.

For Chelsea, this is a vital result in the race for Champions League qualification. The performance, particularly from the young Brazilian, suggests a growing confidence in Rosenior's project. Palace, meanwhile, must quickly find points to avoid being dragged into a deeper relegation battle.
