Preview
After 3 long months without Premier League football, it’s finally back! 9 months of compelling football begins at Stamford Bridge for Chelsea as the blues prepare to face West Ham on Monday night in the first London derby of the season.
Both teams didn’t have the best pre-season with Chelsea losing 2 of their 6 games but conceding 8 goals in the process whilst West Ham only won 2 of their 8 games which included European commitments.
Chelsea will look to give the fans a season to remember after one to forget last time out, with the blues looking to improve on their 10th place finish. Antonio Conte will not have to worry about European games this year which could end up being a blessing in disguise.
