Chelsea have one other sport on a Sunday afternoon, and this time we face our London neighbours West Ham United.
So Chelsea play away from dwelling at West Ham this coming Sunday at 4.30pm UK time. The sport might be dwell on Sky Sports activities within the UK.
West Ham drew their opening sport 1-1 towards Bournemouth after a late equaliser from Dominic Solanke.
David Moyes had them lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation which is sarcastically what Mauricio Pochettino’s most popular line-up is.
We noticed Mauricio Pochettino line up with a again three towards Liverpool, and that drew the identical 1-1 consequence.
Chelsea performed properly in that sport and had been unfortunate to not win it after largely taking management of the sport. West Ham might be fully completely different opponents however Chelsea will fancy themselves on this one regardless of being away from dwelling.
It’s onerous to know what Pochettino will go for, however I’m going to foretell that he stays with the identical formation a minimum of, however we do now have a few new additions to reveal in thoughts!
So, with that in thoughts, right here is my predicted line up for Chelsea to face West Ham:
3-4-2-1: Sanchez; Disasi, Thiago Silva, Colwill; Gusto, Enzo, Caicedo, Chilwell; Mudryk, Sterling; Jackson.
I believe Moises Caicedo will come straight in to begin alongside Enzo (mouthwatering). Romeo Lavia will solely have educated as soon as, so I see him beginning on the bench after which when he does begin, Pochettino shifting to extra of a 4-3-3, or again to a 4-2-3-1 with Enzo enjoying forward of Caicedo and Lavia however extra of a deeper 8 fairly than the ten.
I really feel Poch may convey Mykhailo Mudryk in for Carney Chukwuemeka. I don’t know why, I simply have that feeling.
Gusto should begin at proper wing again as a result of it seems to be like Reece James has suffered one more damage, which is massively irritating as soon as once more.

I’m feeling fairly assured about getting all three factors on Sunday, particularly after an encouraging efficiency towards Liverpool final weekend.
In fact, none of those video games are going to be simple however there’s a feeling of confidence within the group proper now and with the addition of Caicedo in midfield for us, it needs to be an excellent larger enhance for all concerned and added further high quality alongside Enzo.
Buzzing for the sport, UTC!! Come on Chelsea!!
