Chelsea vs West Ham Betting Tips

  • Cole Palmer to Score at Any Time @ 6/5
  • Pedro Neto – Over 1.5 Shots @ 8/15
  • Jarrod Bowen – Over 0.5 Shots on Target @ 4/5
  • Reece James to be Shown a Card @ 7/2

Chelsea return to Premier League action at home against West Ham at 17:30 on Saturday.

Liam Rosenior will be looking to make it six wins from seven as Blues manager when the relegation-battling Hammers come to visit, following on from their midweek win in Europe.

The West Londoners came from behind to seal a 3-2 victory over Serie A giants Napoli in the Champions League on Wednesday night, confirming their spot in the league phase’s top eight.

Not only have they sealed direct advancement to the round of 16 as a result of their impressive triumph in Naples, but Chelsea have set a new record in the competition in the process, too.

They are now at 18/1 in the Champions League winner betting odds market.

As for their position in the English top-flight, they are in fifth place after last weekend’s 3-1 win away at Crystal Palace. Prior to that, they claimed a 2-0 victory over Brentford.

Chelsea star Cole Palmer

Meanwhile, West Ham have won each of their last three matches across all competitions after going winless in 10 consecutive matches between late November and mid-January.

They beat Sunderland 3-1 last time out, following on from a 2-1 win away at Tottenham.

Despite their recent upturn in form, they remain in the relegation zone. Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are in 18th place in the table, five points adrift of Nottingham Forest in the safety postitions.

The East Londoners are odds-on in the Premier League relegation betting odds market.

Positively though, Espirito Santo is no longer among the favourites in the Premier League sack race odds market. Bookmakers have him at 28/1 as the 11th favourite in the market.

A poor run of results will likely see his situation at the London Stadium worsen, however.

If he does end up leaving, Slaven Bilic is favoured in the next West Ham manager odds market.

Palmer is one of Chelsea’s most reliable scorers, leading the team for shots on target and goal involvements in recent seasons.

He operates centrally in attacking phases and is first choice for penalties.

Why: Shot volume, penalties, and role make him Chelsea’s top scoring threat.

2. Pedro Neto – Over 1.5 Shots

Neto plays high on the wing and is encouraged to attack his full-back directly.

Why: Direct wide role supports multiple shooting attempts.

3. Jarrod Bowen – Over 0.5 Shots on Target

Bowen is West Ham’s primary goal threat and their most direct attacker.

Why: Focal attacker status supports at least one accurate effort.

4. Reece James to be Shown a Card 

James plays aggressively at full-back and is frequently involved in recovery challenges.

West Ham’s counter-attacking style can force late tackles in wide areas.

Why: Defensive duels increase booking risk.

His confidence and attacking freedom increase shot attempts.

Why: Role and shooting tendency support volume.
