Difficult to know isn't it?!
I think Haaland will start whilst they're still fighting for the title.
Similarly, Chelsea need top 4 (or top 5 if they're lucky) so they can't afford to drop points either.
Given the International break and then FA Cup, I expect both players to play this weekend and then in the Champions League - perhaps an early sub if they're strolling to victory.
Then maybe pull out of the international squad late on with an injury? Palmer has done that several times before but perhaps is less certain of his place in the World Cup squad than he would have been 12 months ago.
Ha ha. Yes indeed. A classic "International Break Injury" 😆
