At this point Chelsea demonstrate extremely strong football, the team is on a good pace now, however, it didn’t prevent it from letting the first place to AS Roma in its group in the UEFA Champions League. In regards to the Premier League, the club currently occupies the third position there, having gained 32 points in 15 rounds played. “The Pensioners” have not been broken across seven games in a row already. Chelsea stay strong on the road as well. The team has faced no problems in thrashing West Bromwich 4:0 and then deserved 1:1 draw against Liverpool.
It might seem astonishing but West Ham have won half of all their head-to-heads against Chelsea. However, at the moment West Ham are able to compete on equal with very few, thus, the visitors are considered to be the favourites of the forthcoming fight.
Prediction for the match: Chelsea to win.
