Chelsea host West Ham in the Premier League as Mauricio Pochettino’s side look to keep their hopes of Europe this season alive.
The Blues were impressive as they beat Tottenham 2-0 on Thursday night but Pochettino’s side have been inconsistent this season and the manager warned his team that they must replicate their midweek performance against David Moyes’s side.
West Ham are also still within a shot of qualifying for Europe for a fourth season in a row, but they will likely have to win at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea, who have won six of their last seven at Stamford Bridge, would go above Manchester United with three points today.
Hello and welcome to football.london for live coverage of Chelsea’s Premier League clash with West Ham United.
Less than 72 hours after the Blues beat Tottenham 2-0 at Stamford Bridge, Mauricio Pochettino’s men are in action yet again with the Hammers the next visitors to SW6. Chelsea massively boosted their chances of qualifying for next season’s Europa Conference League but know they have to continue in that manner this afternoon.
West Ham, meanwhile, come into the match two points below Chelsea, although the Irons have played a game more. Both sides still have plenty to play for and the Blues will be looking to get revenge over their city rivals after losing in east London back in August of last year.
