Chelsea vs West Ham United. Shape of the Teams
On May 5 Chelsea will host West Ham in the Premier League. Only three days ago, Chelsea hosted Tottenham at Stamford Bridge and the Blues managed to grab a 2-0 victory – the first since their elimination from the FA Cup.
Meanwhile, West Ham has recently experienced disappointment on the European stage, having been eliminated from the Europa League by Bayer Leverkusen.
The Hammers need to perform well in the remaining games of the season to qualify for the European competition next campaign. There are still chances to overcome Newcastle, who are currently in seventh place. However, a win against Chelsea is a must to achieve this.

Chelsea vs West Ham United Prediction, Odds
- Pick: Chelsea to Win
- Odds: -152 (Tonybet)
Despite suffering a disastrous 5-0 defeat against Arsenal, the Blues showed resilience and bounced back with a strong performance against Tottenham, securing a 2-0 victory.
Historically, Chelsea has a favourable record in head-to-head clashes with West Ham at Stamford Bridge, with four wins, two losses, and one draw. While they have been inconsistent this campaign, based on their track record, I think they will be able to clinch a victory.
Cole Palmer has been Chelsea’s main man. The Englishman’s arrival from Manchester City has proven to be a game-changer. Palmer already has 20 goals to his tally and is one of the major contenders to become the top goalscorer in the Premier League.
West Ham, on the other hand, has struggled with form, particularly away from home. Facing a motivated Chelsea side at Stamford Bridge, it will be difficult for them for them to secure a positive result. Chelsea’s determination to solidify their spot in European competitions adds another challenge for the Hammers.
Chelsea vs West Ham United Betting Tip
- Pick: Over 3.5 Goals
- Odds: +104 (Tonybet)
The defining characteristic of these teams this season is their tendency to both score and concede goals in large numbers. Chelsea has not managed to organize their defence properly. The Blues find it difficult to keep a clean sheet, especially with their main goalkeeper Roberto Sanchez sidelined due to injury.
West Ham faces the same issues. They have conceded in nine consecutive matches and 65 in total in the Premier League. I think that we will see an open match with both teams going into the offence and not being able to keep the ball in the midfield for a long time.
Although Jarrod Bowen has seen a decline in form, the English forward is still one of the Hammers’ main attackers. Mohammed Kudus and Michail Antonio will also be available, and considering their speed, pace, and physicality, they will create a lot of problems for Chelsea’s defenders. We can expect a prolific performance and excitement from both sides.
