Chelsea and West Ham meet on Saturday in a London derby from which both managers need a victory.
Frank Lampard's Blues are still riding high in fourth place in the Premier League table, but last weekend's 2-1 defeat at Manchester City will be a key test of his young squad's mentality.
As for West Ham, Manuel Pellegrini is under huge pressure following a seven-game winless run, leaving the Hammers just three points above the relegation zone.
After losing one London derby at home to Tottenham last week, Pellegrini knows another poor result at Stamford Bridge could well cost him his job.

Prediction
Chelsea 2-1 West Ham: With this being a derby, the Hammers should be up for it - and if they're not, that could speak volumes about Pellegrini's fate.

Team news
Chelsea
Tammy Abraham is set to be sidelined with a hip injury after suffering a fall against Valencia. The striker's problem is not as serious as first thought, but it could still keep him out.
Callum Hudson-Odoi could return from a thigh injury, but the game may come to soon for Ross Barkley and Antonio Rudiger. Ruben Loftus-Cheek also remains sidelined.
West Ham
Pellegrini is tempted to drop under-fire goalkeeper Roberto for David Martin. The Hammers boss is also set to hand Michail Antonio his first start in more than three months after his impressive 45-minute cameo against Tottenham.
Elsewhere, Jack Wilshere and Winston Reid are unlikely to feature, Issa Diop is suspended, while Manuel Lanzini and Lukasz Fabianski remain out injured.
