Chelsea will be aiming to react to their defeat at the hands of Arsenal in mid-week with the visit of West Ham United to Stamford Bridge on Sunday. The Blues host the Hammers on the back of conceding four to the Gunners so will certainly be keen to get back on track this weekend.
The game against David Moyes’ men also gives Chelsea the chance to correct their stuttering form on home soil. The Blues have lost three out of their last four matches at Stamford Bridge - a run that has included heavy defeats of course to Arsenal, Brentford and Real Madrid.
It is certainly not going to be an easy task though, with the Hammers having put together an extremely impressive season this term. Despite an inconsistent spell over recent weeks, West Ham have been right in the battle for a top four place for the end of the season - and could yet well be rewarded with another European berth come May in what would be earned reward for their campaign thus far.

For the game this weekend though, the Blues are set to be without a number of key players. Mateo Kovacic and Antonio Rudiger remain restricted to the sidelines, whilst there remains questions over the fitness of Andreas Christensen. With all of that being said, take a look at the full squad that Tuchel will likely have at his disposal against the Hammers.
Goalkeepers: Edouard Mendy, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Marcus Bettinelli
Defenders : Trevoh Chalobah, Malang Sarr, Thiago Silva, Marcos Alonso, Reece James, Cesar Azpilicueta, Andreas Christensen
Midfielders: N’Golo Kante, Jorginho, Saul Niguez, Ruben Loftus-Cheek, Ross Barkley, Mason Mount
Forwards : Kenedy, Kai Havertz, Hakim Ziyech, Christian Pulisic, Romelu Lukaku, Timo Werner
