Chelsea v West Ham United; how to watch the London clubs’ next Premier League game on TV and streaming

It doesn’t seem like a Premier League weekend without at least one London derby taking place, and in the case of this weekend, fans are spoiled with two taking place in the capital.

Alongside Tottenham playing host to Fulham, East meets West as West Ham United travel across to Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea.

A lot of eyes, especially a number of Arsenal fans, will be on Chelsea’s deadline day signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who links up with Thomas Tuchel once again having worked with the Chelsea manager at Borussia Dortmund.

The £10.3 million pound signing from Barcelona has stated he has “unfinished business” in the Premier League, stating to the BBC “’I’m really happy. It’s an honour to be part of this team and I can’t wait to start.”

“I have some unfinished business with the Premier League so it’s good to be back and really exciting.’

How did Chelsea and West Ham fare in their last games?

Both Chelsea and West Ham were involved in midweek fixtures, with mixed fortunes for both teams.

West Ham United played another London club in the form of a title-chasing Tottenham Hotspur; the Hammers fell behind to an unfortunate own goal from summer signing Thilo Kehrer but were rescued in the second half by Tomas Soucek, scoring in the 55th minute to end the game 1-1.

Chelsea were shocked by a relegation favoured Southampton on Tuesday night; despite Raheem Sterling continuing his fantastic run of games scoring once more against the south coast side, goals from Southampton’s Romeo Lavia and Adam Armstrong saw the hosts gather all three points in a shock 2-1 loss for Thomas Tuchel.
