As the season nears its conclusion, Chelsea will be hoping to break their current dismal run when they host West Ham United, who are aiming to maintain their challenge for a top-four finish. The Blues have lost two of their previous three league games, both at home, while the Irons have only won two of their last five.
The odds on Thomas Tuchel's team are 1/2, while the odds on David Moyes' team are 5/1, and the odds on a draw are 10/3. Just one of Chelsea's last 15 Premier League home games versus West Ham has ended in defeat.
Arsenal's 4-2 victory at Stamford Bridge in midweek came as a shock to many, including Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta. Despite being knocked out of the Champions League, the Blues still have a chance of winning silverware in the FA Cup final against Liverpool next month, but sit just two points ahead of Mikel Arteta's side in the race for fourth place.

In the Premier League, Chelsea will play West Ham United this afternoon in an attempt to put Wednesday's devastating loss to Arsenal behind the Blues. A positive response from Thomas Tuchel's Chelsea squad is desperately needed following their disappointing performance against the Gunners last week.
Tuchel has a lot to think about when it comes to the team he selects to face Chelsea at Stamford Bridge this afternoon. Despite starting Romelu Lukaku on Wednesday, German coach Joachim Low's experiment with the £97.5 million striker failed.
At this point, it's uncertain if Tuchel will stick with Lukaku today, although Mateo Kovacic and Antonio Rudiger are also out. Both Kovacic and Rudiger have injuries, and Tuchel has confirmed that they will miss the Hammers' visit.
