West Ham vs Chelsea prediction: How will Premier League fixture play out today

PA Wire

West Ham United face going four games without a Premier League win when they host leaders Chelsea on Saturday.

The Hammers have been in brilliant form this season, but have struggled a little since the international break, suffering back-to-back defeats against Wolves and Manchester City before a dramatic draw against Brighton, with Neal Maupay scoring a stunning overhead kick in injury time.

Chelsea struggled for fluidity but still managed to defeat a valiant Watford side 2-1 earlier this week, with Mason Mount and Hakim Ziyech on the scoresheet.

Romelu Lukaku started on the bench again after a long injury layoff but is likely to return to Thomas Tuchel’s first XI in what promises to be a tense and hard-fought London derby.

Here is everything you need to know:

When is it and what time is kick-off?
