London - The English Premier League crown will be within Chelsea's grasp on Sunday when they host Crystal Palace needing three points to become champions.
While their early-season free-flowing football has faded, Chelsea have unquestionably been the season's stand-out team as they seek a first English title since 2010.
The circumstances of their last coronation were quite different, with a side steered by Carlo Ancelotti eviscerating Wigan Athletic 8-0 at Stamford Bridge on the campaign's final day to set a new Premier League scoring record of 103 goals in a season.
