You have to go back to March 1982 for the last time Crystal Palace beat Chelsea in successive league games.
But the Eagles have the opportunity to do just that when the Premier League leaders and title favourites visit Selhurst Park on Saturday.
The Blues are 4/11 to take all three points though, with the draw at 19/5 and Palace 9/1 with BetVictor.
Chelsea’s only defeat in their last 15 London derbies was the 1-0 reverse to Palace last season, when John Terry’s own goal from Joel Ward’s cross divided the sides.
Jose Mourinho suggested the Eagles played with more spirit and determination than his own players back in March and Neil Warnock, now back as Palace boss, will insist they play with the same intensity at the weekend.
The statisticians at Opta tell us that Diego Costa has already scored more goals this season (nine) than any player has for Palace since they returned to the top flight at the start of last term.
Costa broke his scoring duck for Spain against Luxembourg at the weekend and the striker is 31/10 to score the opening goal and 4/5 to find the back of the net at any time during the 90 minutes on Saturday.

Be lucky.
