Chelsea v West Ham: match preview | Football

[ad_1]

West Ham are three points above the teams in the bottom three before visiting Stamford Bridge and are unlikely to find Frank Lampard in a charitable mood. The Chelsea manager will want his team to show no mercy against his former side and another defeat could force West Ham to sack Manuel Pellegrini. Lampard, who played for Pellegrini at Manchester City, is without Tammy Abraham after the forward injured his hip against Valencia. Jacob Steinberg
