West Ham host Chelsea under the Friday night lights in what should be an entertaining Premier League London derby.

West Ham vs Chelsea Odds

Double Chance - West Ham or draw

West Ham suffered a disappointing start to the Premier League campaign when losing 3-0 at Sunderland, but let’s not forget that Chelsea hardly dazzled in a 0-0 draw with Crystal Palace.

The Blues should really have been beaten 1-0 by the Eagles at Stamford Bridge had Eberechi Eze’s goal not been ruled out on a bizarre technicality.

Enzo Maresca has once again welcomed a whole host of big-money arrivals this summer, but the Blues still looked short on quality in attack against Palace and the 45-year-old can’t be described as a forward-thinking manager.

Chelsea were successful in the Club World Cup over the summer, but the Blues appear to have been massively overrated following their victory in America and they look far too short for this journey across the capital.

West Ham vs Chelsea Stats

  • West Ham’s last victory over Chelsea was a 3-1 home success in August 2023
  • Jarrod Bowen scored 13 goals in 34 Premier League appearances for West Ham last season
  • These two teams won a combined 18 corners on the opening weekend of the new season

Jarrod Bowen to score at any time

Jarrod Bowen scored 13 goals in 34 Premier League appearances for West Ham last season and the Hammers forward could better that tally this term.

Graham Potter deployed the England international alongside Niclas Fullkrug at the top of West Ham’s attack against Sunderland, and while the 28-year-old failed to score, he did manage four attempts at goal.

Chelsea’s centre-back pairing of Josh Acheampong and Trevoh Chalobah looked far from secure against Palace on the Premier League’s opening weekend and Bowen can be backed to find the net at the London Stadium.

Over 9.5 corners

Niclas Fullkrug may not be the goalscorer West Ham fans are crying out for, but the German striker is a focal point to their attack and an imposing physical presence.

The Irons took seven corners against Sunderland last weekend and Graham Potter’s side will look to get Fullkrug involved as much as possible.

Chelsea hit 11 flag kicks against Palace and the Blues have taken at least seven corners in three of their last four Premier League games.
