Chelsea suffered a surprise defeat over the weekend, losing 2-1 at home to Crystal Palace.
Despite going ahead early in the game through Cesc Fabregas, the Blues were behind in as quick as six minutes.
Two quick-fire goals from Wilfried Zaha and Christian Benteke put the Eagles 2-1 ahead and they sat deep to see out the victory and take a valuable three points in their bid to remain in the Premier League.
Even with being seven points clear at the top of the Premier League, some fans raised some concerns after the performance at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.
The defeat makes Wednesday’s midweek Premier League fixture against third-place Manchester City a crucial one for Chelsea and Antonio Conte.
Despite that, there are plenty of reasons why the Blues will still go on to lift the trophy at the end of the season, just like they were expected to. Here are just a few.
