West Ham United confirm starting XI for clash v Chelsea in Premier League
West Ham United have confirmed their starting XI for their Premier League fixture with Chelsea on 11 February with zero changes made.
David Moyes opted to make no changes to his side sticking with the same starting XI that earned a hard-fought draw against Newcastle United.
As confirmed on Twitter prior to kick-off, Moyes made the brave call with his starting XI for the early kickoff clash at the London Stadium, with Thilo Kehrer fit enough to keep his spot.
Derby boost.
A London derby is always a fiery affair and the clash between West Ham United and Chelsea will be no different in the early Premier League kickoff.
Today’s game is very winnable for the Hammers, Chelsea still looks out of sorts under Graham Potter and there has arguably never been a better chance to take some points off them.
Moyes and co are coming off the back of an extremely classy outing away to an in-form Newcastle side and this should put them in good stead for today’s fixture.
Tottenham and Manchester United are looming for the Hammers in the Premier League next, so things won’t be getting any easier anytime soon.
To be honest, when is a Premier League game nowadays plain sailing anyway? Every weekend provides twists and turns in the most competitive league in the world.
Hammers will just be hoping they can trump Chelsea in this one today, points are very much needed to ease any fears of possible relegation.
