"I am expecting": Mark Lawrenson states his prediction for West Ham v Chelsea

Mark Lawrenson has given his prediction for the upcoming match between West Ham and Chelsea. The Hammers are currently in 4th place in the league table with 24 points, while the Blues are leading the race with 33 points. Both sides will be hoping to have a successful match when they face each other on Saturday, however, Lawrenson backs Thomas Tuchel's side to celebrate a victory over the rivals. "It looks like the international break has halted West Ham's momentum because they have not won any of their three Premier League games since - and I don't see them ending that run here," the pundit said on BBC Sport. "Chelsea were fortunate to win at Watford on Wednesday, and their manager Thomas Tuchel admitted it afterwards. I am expecting a reaction from them on Saturday - and a much-improved performance - because they rarely play poorly two games in a row."
