After a strong start to the season, Chelsea have endured a tough spell of late. The Blues have slipped from second in the table to sixth after a run of one win in seven league games. Brushed aside by Man City last weekend, Enzo Maresca’s side created chances but were particularly poor in defence. Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez also made another high-profile error and may see his place taken by understudy Filip Jorgensen.
After a disastrous spell in charge of Chelsea, Graham Potter will return to Stamford Bridge with a point to prove. West Ham have picked up four points from his three games in charge and were exceptional in the second half last week as they secured a deserved draw with Aston Villa. Lucas Paqueta was the standout performer for the Hammers who have limited options in attack with Jarrod Bowen, Michael Antonio, Niclas Füllkrug and Crysencio Summerville all sidelined due to injury.
