Graham Potter's Chelsea are gearing up for an eye-catching derby this weekend as they travel across the capital to face West Ham.

Neither side head into the clash in especially positive form, with just one Premier League win each since the start of 2023, and Potter and his opposite number David Moyes are under pressure.

Despite being given a multi-million-pound transfer budget during the January window, Potter needs to improve in the coming weeks, as Moyes looks to keep the Hammers away from the relegation zone.

Here's all the key information on the match including kickoff time, live streaming and TV channels, lineups and betting odds.

West Ham vs Chelsea prediction, odds

A poor start to 2023 for both sides will give West Ham confidence of frustrating Chelsea at the London Stadium and they have only lost once at home to the Blues in Premier League action since moving from Upton Park.

Moyes will be confident of a battling performance from his players in this fixture, with Chelsea's star-studded squad still unsettled, and a draw is a strong option.
