The Chelsea squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 2-1 away defeat against Southampton, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed.  They came away from that fixture with a possession stat of 68% and clocked up 10 attempts on goal with 4 on target, in comparison to Southampton, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 7 of which were on target.  

While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 8 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 9, and leading to valuable points being dropped.   Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 18 games in a row.  Thomas Tuchel will have some concerns about his team's back line after only making 1 clean sheet in their last 6 home matches.  

They have been performing well at Stamford Bridge recently and are unbeaten in their last 6 home games.

An important point secured against Tottenham Hotspur will have left West Ham United quite happy with their 1-1 draw.  They achieved 38% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 4 hitting the target, up against Tottenham Hotspur's tally of 12 efforts at goal, 4 of which were on target.  

Having conceded 9 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 4 points.   They are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.  

They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.  

On an individual basis, Saïd Benrahma will be looking to cause Chelsea some problems having scored 3 goals in West Ham United's last 6 away games in the league.
