West Ham make the short trip to Chelsea this evening as Graham Potter faces his former team for the first time.
Potter has made a solid start since replacing Julen Lopetegui at the London Stadium and will now look to upset his old employers. Last weekend, Emerson Palmieri’s goal earned a point at Aston Villa.
However, the Hammers sit 15th in the table and will want to start climbing the table under their new head coach.
Chelsea, in contrast, can climb into the Champions League places with a win. Form has deserted Enzo Maresca’s side of late, however, with just one win in seven league games.
Jarrod Bowen could make his return in a huge boost for West Ham. The club captain has trained this week after an extended spell out with a fractured foot.
Konstantinos Mavropanos is back from suspension, though Lucas Paqueta is a doubt. Graham Potter remains without Niclas Fullkrug, Michail Antonio, Jean-Clair Todibo and Crysencio Summerville.
West Ham boosted their options with the loan signing of Brighton forward Evan Ferguson on Monday. James Ward-Prowse has also been recalled from his loan spell at Nottingham Forest.
West Ham predicted XI: Areola; Coufal, Wan-Bissaka, Kilman, Mavropanos, Emerson; Soucek, Alvarez; Kudus, Paqueta, Bowen.
Chelsea host West Ham in the Premier League on Monday February 3rd 2025. Kick-off at Stamford Bridge is 20:00 GMT.
Chelsea vs West Ham will be available to watch on Sky Sports Main Event, Sky Go UK, Sky Sports Ultra and NOW UK.
