Chelsea vs West Ham Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Chelsea are fifth in the Premier League and going into this weekend's reduced Premier League fixture list, they are only behind fourth-placed Arsenal on goal difference and two points behind Spurs in third. Arsenal play at Everton on Sunday and Chelsea will be hoping the Gunners drop points. With Spurs not having a fixture, a win over West Ham on Monday will see them move into the top four. They have won their last two league games with victories over Cardiff City (thanks ref) and Brighton and Hove Albion. Home form is good with four wins from their last five games.

West Ham are 11th in the Premier League and only five points behind the seventh position that will secure a Europa place if Manchester City win the FA Cup. They aren't in the best of form though with a terrible away record of late. The Hammers have lost five of their last six away league games and have been beaten by sides such as Burnley, Cardiff City and Bournemouth. Their record at Stamford Bridge is equally unimpressive with no wins in their last 13 visits and no win in 17 years. Go for Chelsea to keep their Champions League hopes alive with a home win, leading at both half and full time.
