Can Chelsea Pick Up First League Victory?

West Ham have been tipped by many to struggle this season. Graham Potter has a big job on his hands at the London Stadium, and the Hammers got off to the worst possible start last weekend.

West Ham travelled to newly promoted Sunderland on the opening weekend and were second best throughout. United crashed to a heavy 3-0 defeat at the Stadium of Light, with Eliezer Mayenda, Dan Ballard, and Wilson Isidor scoring.

The Blues secured a spot in the UEFA Champions League after finishing fourth last season. Enzo Maresca also guided the west London club to the UEFA Conference League trophy. They are aiming for a top-four place again this term.

Chelsea would have wanted all three points from their opening match, but they were frustratingly held at home by Crystal Palace. In fact, the Eagles were the better team for large chunks and could have left Stamford Bridge with all three points.
