Chelsea host West Ham looking to continue their improved form under Liam Rosenior.
Back-to-back wins in Rosenior’s first two Premier League games in charge have got Chelsea going again domestically after a tough period, while qualification for the round of 16 of the Champions League was secured with an impressive fightback against Napoli.
With Manchester United not in action until tomorrow, Rosenior’s side will return to the top four with a win here but face a West Ham side buoyed by their own recent success.
Having seemingly been condemned to relegation, successes against Tottenham and Sunderland have restored a degree of hope, though the east London club remain in the bottom three.
Here’s everything you need to know.
