Chelsea Team News and Predicted Lineup

Chelsea remain without long-term absentees Benoit Badiashile and Wesley Fofana in defence. Romeo Lavia is also unavailable in midfield, while Omari Kellyman has yet to make his debut due to fitness concerns. Additionally, Mykhailo Mudryk is suspended after failing a drugs test.
Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez has been inconsistent, and manager Enzo Maresca may opt to replace him with Filip Jorgensen.
Predicted Chelsea Lineup (4-2-3-1): Jorgensen; James, Chalobah, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Madueke, Palmer, Sancho; Jackson.
West Ham Team News and Predicted Lineup

West Ham are grappling with injuries in attack, as Niclas Fullkrug and Michail Antonio are sidelined. Crysencio Summerville is also unlikely to feature. Midfielder Lucas Paqueta suffered a groin injury in their last match and will be assessed before kick-off.
However, Jarrod Bowen could make a return to the squad after recovering from a fractured foot, which would be a huge boost for the Hammers. In defence, Jean-Clair Todibo remains unavailable, but Konstantinos Mavropanos is back from suspension.
Predicted West Ham Lineup (3-4-2-1): Areola; Coufal, Kilman, Cresswell; Wan-Bissaka, Alvarez, Soler, Emerson; Kudus, Soucek; Ings.
Chelsea vs West Ham: Score Prediction
Chelsea have struggled for consistency, especially at Stamford Bridge, where they have won just one of their last three home matches. However, with their superior squad depth and attacking options, they should have the edge over a West Ham side that is still adjusting under Graham Potter and dealing with significant injuries.
Prediction: Chelsea 2-1 West Ham
