West Ham vs Chelsea Predictions: Chris Sutton on the Premier League game

Chris Sutton makes predictions for all 380 Premier League games this season, against a variety of away teams.

In the fifth week he takes on singer-songwriter and West Ham fan James Smith, whose debut album “Common People” has just been released.

First up this weekend is Chelsea’s away game against the Hammers.

Sutton's prediction: 1-1

It's a very difficult game because West Ham haven't played particularly well and I'm not convinced about Chelsea either. They were very lucky to beat Bournemouth last time.

I really have no idea how the game will turn out, so I guess a draw would be the most sensible outcome for me.

Smith's prediction: 2-1

We always do well against Chelsea, especially at home. I don't think they have been outstanding so far this season and although we haven't been either, I think we can beat them.

I would like to say there will be a lot of goals, but I don't care about the result as long as we win.
