After collecting seven points from the last nine available in the EPL, Chelsea have quietened some of the noise surrounding the club. With each passing week Enzo Maresca is learning more and more about the many players at his disposal, although the Italian is still trying to put his stamp on his new team. The Chelsea boss will want to see more control against West Ham after seeing his team give up several chances to Bournemouth in a 1-0 win last time out.

West Ham are also finding their feet under a new manager. Julen Lopetegui's team salvaged a point with a last-gasp equalizer against Fulham last weekend, but this will be a sterner examination of their credentials. Although Lopetegui is attempting to make West Ham more of a possession-based team, a counter-attacking approach could work well against a Chelsea side that still looks vulnerable defensively.

It's set to be an intriguing game to get this weekend's top-flight action started. Read on to find out how to watch West Ham vs Chelsea live streams where you are. Plus, make sure you don’t miss any of the EPL action by checking out how to watch Premier League live streams from anywhere.
