West Ham will host Chelsea at the London Stadium in the Premier League matchday 15 on Saturday. The kick-off is at 14:30 CEST.

Preview

Despite beating Liverpool 3-2 just over a month ago, West Ham have gone on to claim just one win in four games across all competitions since then. While David Moyes' men managed a 2-0 win over Rapid Wien in the Europa League, the Hammers are on a three-match winless run in the PL, including a 1-1 draw with Brighton on Wednesday. Nevertheless, West Ham are still fouth in the league standings with 24 points.

Chelsea, meanwhile, continue to top the table, nine points clear of their London rivals and just one point ahead of second-placed Manchester City. What's more, Thomas Tuchel's side have extended their unbeaten streak to 12 games in all competitions in a mid-week victory at Watford courtesy of goals from Mason Mount and Hakim Ziyech (2-1).

Team news

While Angelo Ogbonna is the only confirmed injury absentee in Moyes' squad, Tuchel will have to cope with the absence of Ben Chilwell and Mateo Kovacic on Saturday as the pair remain on the sidelines. Reece James and N'Golo Kante, in turn, remain doubtful due to respective injury woes.

Prediction

Well, we would've definitely backed the Hammers to cause major problems to the Blues following their impressive performance against Liverpool last month. However, it doesn't seem likely that West Ham are going to get even with Chelsea for last season's respective 3-0 and 1-0 defeats at Stamford Bridge and the London Stadium when they lock horns at the latter arena this time aroud, given their current form.
