While North London hosts one derby in the capital, another one takes place in South London this weekend as Crystal Palace host Chelsea in the Premier League.

Crystal Palace look to avoid sliding into a relegation battle this early in the season, as they sit 16th in the Premier League table after six games, but hold a game in hand over many other teams due to sporting cancellations after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.

Chelsea return from the international break with a new manager in the form of Graham Potter. Potter’s appointment came after the shock firing of Champions League winning Thomas Tuchel.

With high hopes lofted on the shoulders of Graham Potter at his new club, can Patrick Vieira buck a trend Crystal Palace have against their London neighbours - the team haven’t beaten Chelsea in five previous meetings.

Londonworld takes a look at how to watch this weekend’s other London derby between Crystal Palace and Chelsea.

How did the London clubs fare in their last games?

Crystal Palace made the trip up to the North-East of England before the international break, taking on Newcastle United at St. James Park. Despite Crystal Palace having 9 shots on target the game played out to a 0-0 stalemate.

Chelsea look to be getting most of their games against the neighbours done nice and early this season, as they faced West Ham United at home.

Despite the Chelsea team coming back from behind the win 2-1, the major talking point of the game and the whole Premier League weekend was the quality of VAR decisions made; West Ham saw a goal ruled out for offside in injury time despite it not being a clear and obvious error.
