"A real possibility": Michael Owen states his prediction for West Ham v Chelsea

Chelsea are set to face their next Premier League rivals, West Ham, on Saturday. The Blues are currently sitting in 4th place in the league table and will be looking to gain more points from the upcoming clash in order to end up the campaign in the top four. And ahead of the game, pundit Michael Owen has given his prediction. He has backed Thomas Tuchel's side to secure a 2 – 1 win over the rivals. "Fans of West Ham and Chelsea both scan the fixture list at the start of the season for this one, and on this occasion, given the position of both in the table, it’s all set up to be a vintage rendition of the London Derby," he said. "For the Hammers, Champions League football is a real possibility and the prospect of beating one of their fiercest rivals as they both go for qualification will be salivating for Hammers’ fans. "That said, this Chelsea side are proving to be a hard nut to crack for any side that crosses their path. "The Blues’ 1-0 victory against Manchester City epitomised their defensive solidity, and if they can maintain that level of performance, I think they could be one of few teams to leave the London Stadium with maximum points this season."
