CHELSEA VS WEST HAM: BETTING TIPS

CHELSEA 

PREMIER LEAGUE FORM: L – W – L – W – W 

Chelsea lost their previous Premier League game against London rivals Arsenal (2-4) as the Blues again fell victim to a defeat on home soil. Chelsea have failed to win at Stamford Bridge eight times on 15 occasions this season, making their home form the ninth-best in the league. Thomas Tuchel commented after the Arsenal game that he believes this might be due to a difficult pitch which is giving his side a disadvantage as the ball bounces awkwardly on the surface. 

On a brighter note, German striker Timo Werner is enjoying his time in front of goal, scoring again against Arsenal and putting in another great overall performance. It’s the backline that has been the weak point for the Blues, with many mistakes creeping in, affecting the confidence of the whole team when defending. 

We are pricing a comfortable win for the Blues with a correct score of 2-0 at 6/1 (7.00).

With Timo Werner going on a purple patch, we are pricing the German to score for the third consecutive time in the Premier League at 39/20 (2.95).

PREVIOUS LINEUP: Mendy, Sarr, Christensen, James, Azpilicueta, Loftus-Cheek, Kante, Alonso, Mount, Lukaku and Werner

INJURIES: Ben Chilwell (Ruptured Cruciate Ligament)

WEST HAM

PREMIER LEAGUE FORM: D – L – W – L – W 

West Ham have won three of their last five Premier League games against Chelsea, including a 3-2 win at the London Stadium in the reverse fixture this season. David Moyes will brief his team that this weekend’s opponents have mistakes in them, and with a good performance, they can get a great result. 

In the previous game, the Hammers drew against a very competitive Burnley side. After going behind early in the game through Weghourt’s header, West Ham managed to equalise later in the second half through Soucek. The London side could have gone on to win it if it wasn’t for Nick Pope’s brilliant performance which ensured shared points on the day. 

The upcoming fixtures are pivotal for the Hammers’ season, with a Europa League Semi-final on the horizon against Eintracht Frankfurt.

We are pricing both teams to score at 9/10 (1.90)

Mikel Antonio to score anytime during the match at 22/5 (5.40)

PREVIOUS LINEUP: Fabianski, Johnson, Dawson, Diop, Cresswell, Soucek, Rice, Bowen, Lanzini, Vlasic and Antonio

INJURIES: Angelo Ogbonna (Cruciate Ligament Rupture), Zouma (Sprained Ankle) and Issa Diop (Ankle Injury)

CHELSEA VS WEST HAM: BETTING ODDS

Chelsea are the favourites this weekend at 4/7 (1.57), whilst West Ham are at 5/1 (6.00) to cause an upset and a draw priced at 16/5 (4.20)
