West Ham v Chelsea preview and possible lineups
David Moyes continues his search for a first win in charge of West Ham and will face another daunting test when Chelsea visit the London Stadium.
The Blues want to build on their win over Newcastle United last week with another three points to draw level with second-placed Manchester United ahead of Sunday's derby against Manchester City.
Saturday's early kick-off gives Antonio Conte the chance to pile pressure on at the top of the table while, at the other end of the spectrum, defeat for West Ham would further their woes in ther relegation battle.
"It's a bit strange to see them in this position," Conte said of the Hammers. "They have a lot of good players with great talent. Also this is a very physical team. For sure they have the potential to do better. I hope not tomorrow, but after our game. I am surprised they have struggled.
Adrian is poised to start in goal while Joe Hart is set to drop to the bench while Winston Reid, Javier Hernandez (both hamstring) and Andy Carroll (knee) should be back in the West Ham squad.
Danny Drinkwater is out through illness and David Luiz remains sidelined with a knee injury. The Blues also have "two or three" undisclosed doubts.
