 Former Manchester United striker, Dimitar Berbatov, has predicted Monday’s night Premier League clash between Chelsea and West Ham.

Frank Lampard’s men have dropped off in the title race after suffering back-to-back defeats against Everton and Wolves.

Berbatov, speaking to BetFair, admits that their London derby against the Hammers is a “must-win” fixture.

“This is a must win for Chelsea in my opinion, I think they are going to have a tough time in this one but I think they will just edge it, they need to.

“West Ham have been playing well and I think they will certainly take the game to Chelsea. Prediction 2-1,” Berbatov said.

A win for Chelsea will see them climb as high as fifth place.

Real Madrid defeated Eibar 3-1 on Sunday, to keep pace with Atletico Madrid atop the LaLiga table.

The visitors took the lead when Karim Benzema shot past Marko Dmitrovic in the sixth minute.

Benzema then set up their second goal minutes later for Luka Modric.

Eibar pulled one back after a poor Real Madrid giveaway landed at the feet of Kike, who curled the ball over Thibaut Courtois’ head to make it 2-1.

Lucas Vazquez added one more right before full-time to ensure Zinedine Zidane’s men left with maximum points.

The result sees Real stay level on points with leaders Atleti, who have a superior goal difference over their city rivals.

SPORT : Chelsea vs West Ham, Mark Lawrenson predicts scoreline of EPL clash

 

Former Liverpool player, Mark Lawrenson has predicted the scoreline of today’s Premier League clash between Chelsea and West Ham United.

Chelsea will on Monday night host West Ham at Stamford Bridge in the Premier League tie.

Frank Lampard’s side head to the game after losing 2-1 to Wolves in their last Premier League encounter, while West Ham played a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace.

Providing his prediction, Lawrenson backed Chelsea to secure a 2-0 win over West Ham.

“West Ham are in good shape – really well organised, resilient, and with a threat going forward,” Lawrenson told BBC Sport.

“Chelsea have narrowly lost their past 2 games, at Everton and Wolves but that only backs up what I thought about them already – that they’ve got the makings of a very good side, but are not quite there yet.

“This should be a good game, and West Ham will make things difficult for Frank Lampard’s side, but I think it will see the end of this little blip by the Blues. Chelsea 2, West Ham 0.”

The kick-off for Chelsea vs West Ham is scheduled at 9 pm, Nigerian time.
