West Ham United vs Chelsea Prediction

Chelsea’s defense was strong in the last game but thier offense didn’t get the scoring going until later. Chelsea is going to struggle to get quality scoring chances again, and that is going to be the difference here. There isn’t going to be more than goal scored here, and this game is going to end up being lower scoring and the under is going to cash.
