Chelsea will look to end the run of goalless draws when they face their West London rival West Ham United next. After another £300 million spending binge in January, Graham Potte is still figuring out what his greatest squad looks like.

Chelsea enter this match having kept three consecutive clean sheets, but they have only scored five goals in their past seven games, showing that they are still struggling at the other end.

West Ham too are not in a good shape after a promising last campaign. They are currently closer to the relegation zone than the top half of the table which speaks volumes about their position. But David Moyes' team is showing signs of progress, as they build on a promising few weeks. They earned a respectable draw away against Newcastle last week and look to be in good shape in 2023. The London Stadium has proven to be a challenging venue for the Premier League's top teams in recent seasons and Chelsea could face a stern challenge next.

West Ham United vs Chelsea Team News:

The Hammers are likely to be without Kurt Zouma, Maxwel Cornet, and Gianluca Scamacca. Defender Thilo Kehrer is also a major doubt after coming off against Newcastle United in the last game. Apart from them, David Moyes is likely to field a similar team as last weekend.

N'Golo Kante, Christian Pulisic, Edouard Mendy, Armando Broja, Wesley Fofana, and Denis Zakaria all are expected to miss the game due to injuries. They however will welcome Joao Felix in the team who will be eligible to return following the completion of a three-match ban. Mateo Kovacic also has returned to full training and could earn a place in the playing XI. Raheem Sterling, Ben Chilwell, and Reece James also could feature having played against Fulham in the last game.
