Two games at Wembley, three SL/CL teams, and Crystal Palace. Man City drew Liverpool in a double/triple/quad showdown. Chelsea (also shooting for as many as three trophies) got Palace, who will be without Conor Gallagher for the game, due to his loan from Chelsea. Sad for him that he won’t be allowed to play what probably would have been the biggest game of his career so far.
There wasn’t really a right answer for Palace, but maybe Chelsea is for the best. Hopefully distracted and Palace could have drawn or even won their last matchup. I didn’t feel good about avoiding three losses in a row against City, and after a brief run as Liverpool’s bogey team, what seemed like forever ago, they have taken care of business quite easily lately. I’m sure Chelsea is pleased with their draw though.
