Yeah Chelsea started the game pretty well with an early goal in the first half, Jackson scored the 2 goals and proved that Chelsea made the right move when they signed him for 9 years. This is his 4th goal and puts his name in 2nd position on the top scorers list and if he can consistently play like this then he will be a highlight in the Premier League, I don't want to praise him too much but he seems to have a bright future. Let's see if he can score the 3rd goal in the second half, in his current confidence there is a possibility he will do it.

What do you think about the match between Liverpool vs Bournemouth? Liverpool surprisingly lost in the last match and Bournemouth also lost in the last match, as the home team Liverpool should be able to take advantage of this opportunity to catch up on points but we can't be sure whether Liverpool will win by 2 goals or just one goal. I am looking at a bet on Liverpool to win HT/FT 1.70 because I think Liverpool have no reason to drop more points so they have to secure it.

West Ham defense is porous and that gave Chelsea players a good advantage to penetrate their defense. Two ealy goals score in both the first half and the second half shows a sign of unseriousness and lack of understanding their mistakes. Palmer was able to find the back of the net in tge first two minutes of the second half to make West Ham hopeless and unable to put themselves back in the game.

I thought West Ham would put up a tough fight and could even get a point in this match, but it turned out that they were really careless in the early minutes. It seems West Ham is not paying much attention to Chelsea's pace and that's what caused them to concede. Oddly West Ham doesn't seem to learn from their mistakes, where they were again caught off guard at the start of the second half, and Chelsea's pace once again overwhelmed the West Ham defence, and that ended up being the third goal for Chelsea.

Chelsea might be leading and the fans are happy but for the first 20mins both teams was showing that unseriousness in the game, after 25mins of the game West Ham took absolute control of the game till the end of the first half. Chelsea are not even in the game, the team has no flexible midfielder and with Palmer out of the equation the team can't hold the ball for a minute. Going to the defenders, Fofana has been terrible with and without the ball, he can't make a clear marking without offending the player talking about Summerville who has been making life hard for him (Fofana). And why are the defenders of Chelsea including the keeper (Sanchez) always building from the back with poor passes?  Sanchez has been lucky with those weak passes from what have seen.
I just hope the second half won't be as bad for West Ham, they have gotten their mojo back and they need to keep pressing till they get a goal which I'm expecting this second half. Enzo Maresca should be more effective while making his sub in the second half because at half time player like Madueke hasn't been in the game, Enzo still have enough option to make the game be in favor of the Blues.

Halftime score 0 : 2, Chelsea winning with two beautiful goals from Nicholas Jackson, his finishes are notable and precise today, Cucurella is really impressing me with his availability when needed defensively, he's been a good boy today. Enzo is a great captain who's always supporting his team's midfield defensively and offensively today.
Collwill is a rock at that defense, repelling most advances from WestHam, Tosin is trying, but rather too slow for my likening, if Emerson had the pace, he'll probably outrun him countless times.

I don't really like the way Palmer was playing today, he's more like almost invisible in the pitch, same with Madueke. The pressure on the WestHam team is very low in my understanding, Chelsea team has to up their game because if WestHam wakes up from their sluggish football today, Chelsea would be in serious trouble..

Finally, the way the Chelsea team are always returning the ball backwards is not okay with me, they are really not pressing forward with their pattern and if WestHam can take advantage of that leak, the match win would be theirs

I don't really see how Chelsea are managing to take the lead..oh, wait, I know: West Ham aren't a team that are threatening and because of their lax attitude, the visitors have two goals to ensure they claim the three points(that's if the game ends like this). Chelsea have been on fire lately and if not for the loss to Man City, they have been enjoying fine results.
 I just hope that Lopetugi can get his second win of the season away from home but with how unimpressive they have been playing in the earlier minutes of the first half, only getting some form of control in the later minutes, it would look a bit difficult for them. They need to correct their mistakes and get goals for themselves if not Chelsea will have another three points and clean sheet in a row.

Honestly, Nicolas Jackson is truly at his best in this game against West Ham today because just within 18 minutes of play he was able to score a brace that's to show his energy as a striker and i think that is work of a striker, scoring goals. Hope to see a hat trick from the Senegalese in this game.


Since they scored the goals very early they can win confidently because I don't think Westham can be able to equalize this game even if the statistics changes in the second half because I see a different energy from Chelsea players in this game and I don't think they will be so careless to allow this early advantage slips out from their hand.

Man seeing those goals got me thinking like is Nicolas Jackson really this clinical, I actually avoided putting him on my FPL this morning, if only this guy can try to be consistent then things would be better for him, with lesser criticism and more applause. Sancho has been doing well getting another assist today already including CaicedoI hope he try to make those long passes continually on every games.

Though Chelsea don't have to feel relaxed especially after escaping a penalty and also a West Ham goal disallowed by offside, the team need to stay focus  and cautious, West Ham won't be taking in it easy after the halftime break.

Yes, Maresca must remind his troops not to be easily satisfied with the results achieved so far. A 2-0 lead in the first half certainly has great capital and opportunities to lock today's match. I see the Blues' game is very convincing and it seems that Maresca is starting to find the best form. If Chelsea manages to win the match, then their progress will improve and they have the opportunity to compete again at the top of the standings.

Jackson does surprise us in some matches, and he does end up disappointing people in most matches. The first half of the match has just ended, and Chelsea are currently ahead of West Ham with two goals,  it’s really a nice one for the club, and Jackson's performance was so nice in the first half of the match, he was able to secure two goals in the match. Let’s see how Chelsea's performance will be in the second half of the match, let’s see if they will be able to secure more goals or if they will be able to maintain their current win because there was so much pressure on Chelsea towards the end of the first half.

Your comment is as if you read my mind cos that is exactly what I wanted to say. With such outstanding performance from Jackson today, it is possible that Chelsea might be having double mind in their pursuit of Victor Osimhen because Jackson is already doing what Osimhen is expected to do for them unless as we are yet to see his consistency. Sincerely, I'm actually surprised by this first half result because I expected West Ham to give Chelsea a hard time in their home. At the first half score of 0-2, it will be difficult for Chelsea not to win this one.

Nicolas Jackson is on fire today. His second of the day, Technically and beautifully applied
This goal showcases his immense potential, and I can't wait to see more from Jackson
But Palmer and a Madueke have hardly touched the ball, Sancho, Jackson, and Enzo Fernandez are running the game
And yeah, this will probably be an easy win for Chelsea, but it's worth noting how statistics can change over time.

Of the three promoted teams, only Southampton don't have even 1 point, I think with what Leicester have done so far they can get their 3 important points today. Their opponent is Everton who is the same team as Southampton (both have no points yet), moreover the match will be held at King Power Stadium, it gives more enthusiasm to the Leicester squad to get the maximum results they can get.

But it's sad, Chelsea is already taking the lead in today's game against West Ham with 2 goals to Nill currently in less than 19 minutes, of which is obvious with the attack force of Jackson today, who has just scored 2 goals (i.e first at 4 and 18 minutes respectively), this game is likely to end 90minutes still in favour of Chelsea, since they currently have the most ball possession and shots on target, including a good defense squad in this game. Because, though many people may have underestimated Chelsea's performance in today's game, I'm happy it's going as predicted. (2 odds justified..)

However, Jackson seems to be the man of this game.. lolz

The match has just started and Chelsea managed to lead by two goals scored by Jackson, I think Chelsea's chances of winning this match are wide open and even though they are ahead, the Chelsea team is able to control the course of the match.
Indeed, Chelsea has now slowly found its best performance and this is in contrast to West Ham so I am not surprised by this result.

From the look of the ongoing match, I think it will be an easy win for Chelsea because Nicolas Jackson has already scored two goals with an easy finish, putting Chelsea on the lead and increasing their hope of having all three points invthis match.

The first goal was an early goal with an assit from Sancho and the second goal was scored on the 17th minutes with an assist from Caicedo. Chelsea is dominating the match away from home.

West Ham 0-2 Chelsea

If not that Chelsea has won two of there last four game in the English premier league while West Ham has won only one this season I will say both team aren't consistence. This particular game is likely to play draw since it is an early kick-off match I believe westham will do everything possible to make sure they never loss this game since they are already playing at home there will be this home advantage on there side. Though the blues are the favorite to win this game the presence of Jordan Sancho in Chelsea front line will give them a better edge of winning this game but is not really going to be easy for Chelsea just as you have said.

I don't see United carrying all 3 points at the Selhurst Park. Palace are quite above average judging from their last 2 league games and 1 carabao cup game. The issue with united is their defense. There defense lacks some form of coordination, which I think the palace attack might take to their advantage. Eberechi Eze is a very good winger that capitalize on such opportunity, and I clearly don't see any player in the united defense that will have to stop him without committing a foul. Though I still feel united still stand a Chance of winning due to their counter attacking play, but on most occasions when we trust them, they usually disappoint. I just checked the odds for both teams, and united seems to be on the winning side, but I will preferably risk it all for as draw(1-1).


I might just want to give it all to west ham. Judging from the game I watched between Chelsea and Bournemouth, I am not sure if Chelsea can easily secure all 3 points or even get a draw. From Chelsea's game against Bournemouth, Cole palmer couldn't do much because he was heavily marked. Pedro seemed to be a very good threat from the left wing, but was later removed. I am expecting goals from both side, but west ham might just seal it all. How is maresca planning on addressing disasi's issue because he seems to be a little shaky at the back, and west ham players like kudus, Füllkrug or Bowen might easily take advantage of him.

Chelsea although not a consistent team but under new manager Maresca, he has made an impressive start to the season and is slowly improving which must be appreciated because after all they are still struggling to find their best rhythm and of course it takes time.

Chelsea vs West Ham I personally am more confident Chelsea to win this match because historically they have the advantage in this match in the last two meetings Chelsea have always won against West Ham.

In addition, what is interesting is that West Ham is actually good when playing away. However, when playing at home, they have not found their best game, this can be seen from their game history. So this will also be a benchmark that Chelsea will win this match. Moreover, if you look at the squad, Chelsea is better than West Ham because Chelsea has a lot of stock of players from the back line, midfield and front line. So I will bet on Chelsea's victory in this match with a predicted score of 0-2.

Chelsea is one of the toughest teams to predict in the Premier League for me. I follow a strategy of betting against them when they're overestimated and backing them when they're underrated. Today feels like the latter.

Chelsea have won both of their away games this season, so Maresca's squad isn't intimidated by playing on the road. West Ham, on the other hand, lost both of their home matches. Chelsea clearly have more talented players, while West Ham's performance hasn't stood out.
