Prediction
Chelsea’s defensive fragility was on full display at the London Stadium and Nigel Pearson will hope to expose that once again. But Frank Lampard’s anger following the defeat against West Ham suggests he should get a reaction here and for all their problems at the back, even with Tammy Abraham struggling, the Blues pose a threat going forward. Christian Pulisic is enjoying his best form since joining the Blues and we expect the hosts to have just enough to maintain the required pace in the battle for a top four finish. 2-1.
