Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner is expected to make this decision, according to recent reports.
Tottenham Hotspur are the favourites to sign Eze, and sources close to the player believe he will not play against Chelsea.
Arsenal, who have recently secured a new contract with Ethan Nwaneri, may not engage in a bidding war for Eze's services.
Eze himself is said to be keen on joining Tottenham, who have qualified for the Champions League this season.
