West Ham's home form under Graham Potter has been inconsistent, with only two wins and three draws in his first nine home games, resulting in just nine points.

This is a concern for the Hammers, as no manager has ever failed to earn at least 10 points from their first 10 home games in the job. Potter's win percentage after 20 Premier League games in charge is a low 25%, raising questions about his suitability for the role.

However, the Hammers have a recent advantage over Chelsea, having won six of the last 11 fixtures between the two teams. In the Premier League, the balance is even more in West Ham's favour, with five wins in the last seven meetings.

The Blues have a strong record against the Hammers, but West Ham will be looking to their talisman Jarrod Bowen to lead the charge against the visitors. Bowen has scored three goals in his last four London derby appearances and will be crucial to the hosts' chances of earning a positive result.

Chelsea's recent performance has not been impressive, with 19 shots against Crystal Palace on the opening day, but they have shown resilience in the past. The visitors will be looking to dominate possession and exploit West Ham's weaknesses, but the Hammers will be determined to stand their ground and earn a draw.

This match has the potential to be a turning point for both teams, and it will be interesting to see how they perform under the pressure.
