Chelsea vs. West Ham Betting Analysis

The Blues are heavy favorites in the odds, priced at 1.70 / -150.

West Ham’s disastrous opening game has piled the pressure on Graham Potter. A poor start to this game could spell real trouble for the Hammers and their manager.

Chelsea has better players all over the pitch, so they should lay siege to the West Ham net here. The likes of Cole Palmer and Joao Pedro will run riot if Potter doesn’t find a way to tighten up his backline.

West Ham have won just one of their last seven matches against Chelsea, losing five. Over that period, the Hammers have scored an average of 0.86 goals per game and conceded 2.14.

Recent history shows Chelsea’s upper hand, particularly in recent high-scoring encounters.

Chelsea (1.60xG) recorded the highest Expected Goals total of all Premier League teams that failed to score from Friday to Sunday on Matchday 1.
