Chelsea vs West Ham – Team News

Chelsea face West Ham at Stamford Bridge in just under an hour, and the teams are in!

Frank Lampard had a lot of decisions to make after two games without a win, and he’s not shied away!

Firstly, up front Pedro and Olivier Giroud come in. We expected Michy Batshuayi in for Tammy Abraham, so this really is a shakeup.

Pedro plays instead of Willian on the other side, also a surprise.

Then at the back, Azpilicueta is out of the team again to accommodate Reece James, who will be a key attacking outlet down the right.

N’Golo Kante is also rested. That’s a lot of risk for Frank, who clearly has a lot of faith in these backups to get the job done against a weak Hammers team. Let’s hope he’s right.

Here are the full team line-ups for Chelsea vs Bohemians (kick off at 19:45 pm BST):
