Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has claimed that his side are fully focused on today's Premier League trip to Crystal Palace.

Mourinho's men currently lead the table with 69 points, but third-placed Manchester City are just three points behind the Blues with two games in hand.

Chelsea are also still active in the Champions League and they play the first leg of their quarter-final against Paris Saint-Germain just four days after Saturday's game at Selhurst Park.

However, Mourinho insists that his team must not get distracted against Palace, who gave Chelsea a stern test during a 2-1 defeat at Stamford Bridge in December.

"It was difficult at home against Palace when Tony Pulis had only been there for about two weeks," Mourinho told reporters. "Now after months of work and matches, they are much more a Tony Pulis team. They defend well, they defend a lot.

"They are very direct, very aggressive, they are very strong at set pieces and they have every quality that Pulis likes his teams have, so it is going to be very difficult, but we had a good week and we worked and prepared hard for this match, not for the PSG match, and hopefully we can have a good result."

Chelsea have won their last five matches against Palace and the Eagles have not beaten the Blues in a league game since 1990.
