Chelsea Predicted XI – West Ham (A)
Despite their midweek blip against Atletico Madrid which saw them sacrifice top spot in their Champions League group, Chelsea are currently in a rich vein of form, especially domestically.
Unbeaten in their last seven Premier League games, winning six of them, the Blues probably couldn’t have asked for a better fixture this weekend than a trip to a struggling West Ham side who have a notoriously poor home record.
While the Hammers do have a tendency to play up to the occasion in London derbies, they’re equally prone to complete collapses where they ship four, five, six goals with consummate ease and Chelsea will be hoping that it’s the latter of the two outcomes tomorrow afternoon.
David Luiz remains sidelined for Chelsea, but a strong side is expected to be fielded. Here is our predicted XI.
