Team News

West Ham
Chelsea
  • West Ham have a fully fit squad to select from, with James Ward-Prowse in line to make his debut for the Hammers.
  • Edson Alvarez may have to wait to feature from the outset, yet should make the bench at least.
  • Lucas Paqueta continues to be linked with a move to Manchester City, however will start if available.
  • Reece James faces another spell on the sidelines, with Malo Gusto in line to deputise at right wing-back.
  • James is one of seven confirmed absentees for the Blues, with Christopher Nkunku, Wesley Fofana and Benoit Badiashile among those ruled out.
  • Moises Caicedo may make his full debut despite only signing from Brighton this week.

Prediction

  • West Ham have finally added new faces to the squad, with Edson Alvarez and James Ward-Prowse both joining from Ajax and Southampton, respectively. The Hammers were held to a 1-1 draw with Bournemouth on their opening weekend outing.
  • Similarly, Chelsea also played out a 1-1 draw as they welcomed Liverpool to Stamford Bridge. Mauricio Pochettino's side have added Moises Caicedo to the ranks, and are set to sign Romeo Lavia from Southampton.
  • Chelsea have won only one of their last six trips to the London Stadium, and while West Ham usually up the ante against the Blues on home turf, a draw is likely.
