Uncertain summers lie ahead for both of these two London giants but whenever they meet, there is plenty of interest, as Chelsea vs West Ham remains an important game for all punters and EPL betting apps. Mauricio Pochettino’s Chelsea are improving a little, following a generally poor season, whilst West Ham’s campaign has petered out a touch and manager David Moyes looks to be under the pump.

Chelsea vs West Ham United Analysis
These two sides don’t care too much for each other and it could be a fiery encounter with all EPL betting sites.
Chelsea
Whilst recent results have perked up a little, the end of the season seemingly can’t come quick enough for Chelsea. They are now pushing to finish inside the top 7, not necessarily due to their own form, but more to due to the plight of others and much more will be expected of them next season with all punters and Premier League betting sites and they will want to begin their rebuild here.
Team news: Robert Sanchez, Enzo Fernandez, Levi Colwill, Romeo Lavia & Reece James make up the injury list at Chelsea currently.
Chelsea Predicted Lineup:
Dorde Petrovic, Thiago Silva, Axel Disasi, Malo Gusto, Marc Cucurella, Moises Caicedo, Connor Gallagher, Alfie Gilchrist, Nicholas Jackson, Cole Palmer & Mykhailo Mudryk.
West Ham United
The pressure looks to have ramped up on David Moyes this week, with the Scotsman seemingly ready to be shown the door at West Ham in the summer. That uncertainty didn’t get through to the players though, who picked up a solid draw with Liverpool last weekend and who continue to battle away. A top half finish will remain the aim for the Hammers and a result here would go a long way towards achieving that.
Team news: Nayef Aguerd is the only key injury absence for West Ham at the moment.
West Ham United Predicted Lineup:
Alphonse Areola, Vladimir Coufal, Kurt Zouma, Angelo Ogbonna, Emerson, Edson Alvarez, James Ward-Prowse, Lucas Paqueta, Mohammed Kudus, Jarred Bowen & Michail Antonio.
Chelsea vs West Ham United Prediction
It has only been a minor improvement, but Chelsea do look to have generated increased stability in their performances in recent weeks and they deservedly beat Tottenham in midweek. Raising their game against local rivals and/or the ‘bigger teams’ has been something Chelsea have been able to do this season and they should overcome West Ham in this one.
Prediction: Chelsea to win the match – 8/13 (-163) – Rhino Bet.

Cole Palmer to score anytime – 5/4 (+125) – Fitzdares
