Goals from Kai Havertz, Christian Pulisic and Kurt Zouma have given Chelsea a commanding 3-0 lead at Selhurst Park. It has been a dominant performance from the Blues, who could have pulled further ahead but for good goalkeeping from Vicente Guaita.
45' + 2' HALF-TIME: CRYSTAL PALACE 0-3 CHELSEA
45' We are going to have a single minute of stoppage time at the end of this first half.
42' At the other end, Ayew looks to make something happen for Palace. But Azpilicueta reads the situation well with the Chelsea skipper showing good strength to see the ball behind for a goal kick.
40' Chelsea going through the motions as we enter the last five minutes of the first half. They seem quite satisfied to see their three-goal lead through to half-time, and who can blame them?
38' Mr Oliver choosing to keep his cards in his pocket on that occasion, but he has not been afraid to brandish them in recent times. In fact, he has shown 15 yellow cards in the last four matches he has officiated, while he recently sent off Tottenham's Erik Lamela against Arsenal.
36' A brief altercation breaks out between Mount and Zaha in the centre of the field. However, the situation is quickly defused with both players receiving a stern telling from Mr Oliver.
34' OFF THE LINE! Almost another for Zouma, who rises to powerfully head a corner towards goal. But Van Aanholt is well-placed on the line to deny his former club.
33' GOOD REFLEXES! But for Guaita, this could be a lot worse for Palace. Mount exchanges passes with Hudson-Odoi before unleashing a powerful strike that the goalkeeper just about manages to block.
32' The highest-scoring defender in the Premier League, Zouma now has five goals this season in the English top-flight.
26' Can Palace hang on? Chelsea have forced another corner and are not looking like slowing down in their quest to kill this game off. The hosts must maintain their concentration levels.
24' It may have taken Havertz a while to settle since his move to Chelsea, but he certainly appears to have found his feet here. But for Guaita's intervention, he would have doubled his tally in this game.
22' Good save! That was brilliant from Havertz! Latching onto a lofted ball forward, the German flicks it over the head of Van Aanholt before Guaita somehow keeps out his volley. What a goal that would have been.
20' It already looks like a long way back for Palace as the Blues continue to dominate proceedings and push for more goals.
18' Meanwhile, Chelsea arrived on the back of six consecutive Premier League victories over Palace - their best winning league run in this fixture. Already, it appears that span will continue today.
16' Coming into this game, Palace were looking to record a fourth successive clean sheet at home in the Premier League for the first time. But the events of the opening 15 minutes here have quickly put paid to that.
14' These are potentially exciting times for Chelsea. Well in the hunt for a top-four finish, the Blues hold a 2-0 lead ahead of facing Porto in their Champions League quarter-final second leg on Tuesday. Four days later, they take on Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-finals. Should results go their way, Tuchel will have a great chance of landing his first silverware at Stamford Bridge.
12' Two goals in quick succession mean Palace already have a mountain to climb at Selhurst Park. But take nothing away from Chelsea, who have been ruthless during these early stages.
9' The Blues' dominant start is highlighted by the fact that they have enjoyed a whopping 86 per cent of possession so far at Selhurst Park.
7' Mount is one of Chelsea's joint-top scorers in the Premier League this season with six goals. That tally is matched by Jorginho and Tammy Abraham.
5' Another good move by the visitors with Hudson-Odoi cushioning Jorginho's diagonal ball into the path of Mount, who is unable to keep his volley down.
3' A positive start by Chelsea, who quickly take control of possession. A neat move down the right results in Van Aanholt doing well to block Hudson-Odoi's cross.
1' Referee Michael Oliver blows his whistle and Palace get the match underway.
The players are out and kick-off is imminent.
