**London, UK:** Chelsea are looking to secure their second Premier League win in three games this weekend when they travel to the Olympic Stadium to face West Ham United. The Blues enjoyed a dominant 5-1 victory against the Hammers at Stamford Bridge back in May and will be hoping for a repeat performance on Saturday.
While Chelsea boast a strong squad, they will be missing key defender Reece James through injury. However, good news arrives in the form of Malo Gusto and Roméo Lavia’s return to training this week. They are considered “questionable” for the match, with manager Enzo Maresca expected to provide an update soon.
Further injury concerns surround Enzo Fernández and Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, who missed the Bournemouth game due to illness. However, their participation against West Ham is more likely.
The fixture list becomes considerably more demanding after this weekend, with Chelsea facing domestic cup matches and UEFA Conference League commitments in the coming weeks. This match could therefore be crucial in setting the tone for the rest of the season.
