West Ham v Chelsea Bet Builder preview

West Ham or draw double chance

Chelsea were 1-0 winners at the London Stadium last season but they failed to win on their previous three visits and could be denied maximum points this weekend.

Some big players could be back in the frame for Chelsea, including midfielders Jorginho and N'Golo Kante, but there was a lot wrong with their performance in a fortunate 2-1 success at Watford on Wednesday, and it may take them some time to address all of the issues.

West Ham have taken a couple of big scalps this season, winning at home to Tottenham and Liverpool, and they can add at least another point to their tally.

Michail Antonio to score at any time

Watford striker Joshua King caused the Chelsea defence problems with his pace and physicality on Wednesday and his efforts should encourage West Ham forward Michail Antonio, who has netted six goals this season.

Antonio is often seen at his best against bigger teams because West Ham tend to play deeper and look to use his pace on the counter-attack.

He bagged the winner in a 1-0 success at home to Tottenham in October and could be the derby hero against the Blues.

Tomas Soucek to be booked

Tomas Soucek has been carded in the opening half of two of West Ham's last three Premier League home games and the combative Czech international could enter the notebook of referee Andre Marriner.

Chelsea will be stronger in midfield if Kante and Jorginho get the nod but Soucek relishes a tussle and is unlikely to take a backward step.
