THE TEAM NEWS
CHELSEA
- Chelsea narrowly lost after a valiant display at Man City and they drew in Valencia midweek so they will look to get back to winning ways.
- Boss Frank Lampard was concerned to see Abraham come off with a painful hip injury and he is a major doubt so Batshuayi may deputise.
- Chelsea struggled on Wednesday night in Valencia when Jorginho was substituted off so Lampard is unlikely to change his midfield trio.
Predicted line-up (4-2-3-1): Kepa; Azpilicueta, Zouma, Tomori, Emerson; Kovacic, Jorginho; Willian, Kante, Pulisic; Batshuayi
Unavailable: Van Ginkel (Injured), Loftus-Cheek (Injured), Rudiger (Injured), Abraham (Injured)
Doubtful: Barkley (Injured), Hudson-Odoi (Injured)
WEST HAM
- West Ham have picked up just one point from their last six but the late goals against Spurs last week made the 2-3 scoreline look better.
- Manuel Pellegrini remains under pressure to turn things around and this represents another tough fixture for the Hammers at Chelsea.
- Diop picked up his fifth yellow card last weekend so he misses out here as Balbuena is the likely candidate to come into central defence.
Predicted line-up (4-2-3-1): Roberto; Fredericks, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Cresswell; Noble, Rice; Antonio, Snodgrass, Yarmolenko; Haller
Unavailable: Fabianski (Injured), Lanzini (Injured), Diop (Suspended), Wilshere (Injured), Reid (Injured)
Doubtful:
THE PREDICTION
Contrasting form for these two coming into this match as Chelsea have won six of their last seven at home in the league while West Ham have picked up just a point from their last six. Lampard's men are in great form going forward and they will be confident of winning what could be a lively affair.
