Crystal Palace are preparing for the daunting task of facing runaway Premier League leaders Chelsea this weekend - but if they're worried, they certainly not showing it on Twitter.
Earlier this season, Antonio Conte's side managed to eek out a 1-0 win at Selhurst Park, courtesy of a solitary goal from Diego Costa, but it's another meeting of the two sides the Palace social media team have been concentrating on today.
Three years ago today, the Blues went across London looking to keep their hopes of winning the Premier League title alive, but an own goal from John Terry saw Palace win 1-0, effectively ending Jose Mourinho men's hopes of lifting their fourth league title.

The setback at Selhurst Park only slowed the Blues' momentum for a season, though, with Terry lifting the league title a year later and the former England skipper will likely be doing so again in just over a month, with Antonio Conte's men 10 points clear at the Premier League summit, with just 10 games remaining.
It looks like Terry won't be playing against Palace this weekend, so we probably won't see a repeat, but what do you think of their tactics?
