Here's our Chelsea vs West Ham Prediction analysis: Having fallen to defeat on the last matchday, Chelsea will be looking to return to winning ways when they face off West Ham United at Stamford Bridge on Monday night.

Narrowly escaping relegation last season, West Ham crawled up to 16^th place to retain their Premier League status for one more year, at least. Heading into this new campaign, the Hammers are hell-bent on distancing themselves from the drop-zone.

In brilliant form so far, the Hammers occupy eighth place on the log, with a whopping 21 points to their name. Within reach of the top-four, victory in this difficult clash against Chelsea could see them break into the Champions League places. Surely, they will be on-fire here.

Chelsea vs West Ham Team News

Even with the big names on their roster, Chelsea are struggling to get into their rhythm, and dropping vital points even against the weakest of teams. Perhaps, their problems stem from the helm as Lampard continues to ponder on his best starting XI.

It is pretty startling that the English gaffer is yet to figure out his most effective lineup and tactic, even after thirteen league games played. You bet that the Chelsea legend will be losing sheep in a bid to get his faltering side back on track.

Also, the Chelsea lads aren’t helping matters as they constantly fail to hit their high marks. Timo Werner has come under the knife and quite rightly so, for his profligacy in front of goal. To be frank, the German international has serious work to do to improve on his awful finishing.

Kai Havertz, his compatriot, is also enduring a difficult start to life in the Premier League. Shambolic once again on the last matchday, the new signing lost possession countless times as his side were swept aside by Wolverhampton Wanderers, who posted a 2-1 win on the board.

With that defeat, the Blues are now on a two-game losing streak and have dropped down to seventh place, just a point clear of West Ham United. The Hammers will be heading to West London with every intention of bagging all three points.

These ones have gradually grown to become a force to reckon with in English football, and cannot be treated with a wave of the hand. West Ham will be gutted with their mediocre display last time out against Crystal Palace as they dropped two points.

After Benteke had given Palace an early lead, a brilliant Irons’ team move rounded up by a cracking Sebastien Haller bicycle kick brought scores level in the 55^th minute. The game ending 1-1, Moyes’ men will be eager to return to the pitch to get back on the winning train.

Chelsea vs West Ham Predictions

Chelsea are on a poor run of form at the moment, with confidence levels seeming pretty low in their camp. With Havertz and Werner in something of a bind, goal responsibilities have fallen on the shoulders of Giroud and center-back Zouma, of all people.

Meanwhile, West Ham are on a roll, and have won four of their previous six games. It is worth noting that the Hammers have registered one or more goals in their last 12 matches. As such, a safe bet will be backing both sides to find the net.
