West Ham v Chelsea EPL Prediction – Preview
West Ham United F.C.
West Ham United are currently seated outside the relegation zone with 19 points. In their last league game, they held top three side Newcastle United to a 1-1 draw. The Magpies’ Callum Wilson netted on just three minutes, Lucas Paqueta levelled for the Hammers 29 minutes later. Manager David Moyes was delighted with the win, hailing the “absolutely fantastic” effort of his team as they try to avoid possible relegation this season. Could they pull it off again against a rebuilding Chelsea squad?
West Ham have gone between winning (4) and not winning (D1 L2) in the last 7 EPL home matches against Chelsea, being victorious in this fixture 3-2 last season.
The Hammers have lost 8 of their last 10 EPL London derby games, with the exceptions being draws against Tottenham Hotspur and a victory against Fulham in the campaign.
Chelsea F.C.
Chelsea are currently seated 9th in the table, 11 points clear of West Ham. Their last league game saw them held to a scoreless draw with west London neighbours Fulham. After a first half that was lacking in action, both sides came alive in the second period. However, the Blues fell short of converting their chances, with Enzo Fernandez going wide, and David Fofana’s shot being cleared by Tim Ream. On the Cottagers’ side, Willian and Aleksandar Mitrovic also had efforts that were denied. Chelsea boss Graham Potter admitted that his side lacked the togetherness that Fulham had, with the new faces and the previously injured wards “needing to gel”. Can they get it done in time when they visit the Hammers next?
Chelsea have triumphed on four of their last 5 EPL matches against West Ham (L1), and are aiming to win 3 consecutive against them for the first time since April 2011.
In the final five minutes of EPL meetings between the Blues and West Ham, there have been 7 winning goals scored, more than any competition. Each of the last 3 matches between the sides have been won by a goal in the last 5 minutes.
