West Ham vs Chelsea: Predictions, odds & betting tips

  /  autty

Premier League leaders Chelsea make the short trip across the capital on Saturday afternoon for a London derby against fierce rivals West Ham.

The Hammers will be looking to get back to winning ways after three league games without a victory while Thomas Tuchel's men aim to continue their superb away form which has seen them pick up 19 points from a possible 21 on the road.

West Ham have won three of their last six home games against Chelsea in the league and bet365 offer the hosts at 4/1 (5.00).

Chelsea, meanwhile, are available at 8/11 (1.73) to claim their seventh away win of the campaign with the draw priced at 11/4 (3.75).

Mason Mount opened the scoring in midweek at Watford and the England international is available at 9/2 (5.50) to break the deadlock on Saturday, the same price as Kai Havertz.

Romelu Lukaku is the shortest priced player to score first, available at 3/1 (4.00), while the favourite to score first for the Hammers is Michail Antonio at 8/1 (9.00).

Elsewhere for the hosts Tomas Soucek, who opened the scoring in midweek against Brighton, is priced at 16/1 (17.00) to do so once more, while Pablo Fornals, who has scored four times this season, is offered at the same price.

Only the three teams above them in the table have scored more goals than fourth-placed West Ham this season and David Moyes' men have found the back of the net with impressive consistency.

The side from the east of the capital have scored in all seven of their home league matches and, despite Chelsea boasting the division's best defensive record, West Ham will be confident of scoring once more.

The Blues have conceded in three of their last four domestic clashes, and the likes of Watford, Burnley and Southampton have all netted against Chelsea this term.

Both teams to score is priced at 19/20 (1.95) which looks like a healthy price given the scoring record of the hosts.

Odds correct at the time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.
