Chelsea fans have again allegedly sung antisemitic chants, this time at the club's Sunday match against Crystal Palace.

The Times reports the team's fans began the chants when former Tottenham Hotspurs player Andros Townend took possession for Crystal Palace early in the game, which Chelsea won 1-0.

It follows fans chanting of the word "Yid" during the club's Boxing Day clash with Watford and singing antisemitic songs during an away game against Hungarian side Vidi in Budapest earlier this month.

In the Budapest match, fans chanted "Barcelona, Real Madrid, Tottenham are a bunch of Yids... Yiddos".
