BlueLion. 21,491 Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 West Ham United versus ChelseaChelsea and West Ham played out a 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge earlier in the season.Chelsea head across the capital to face West Ham United in a crucial Premier League clash. Nicolas Anelka's second-half equaliser meant that the Blues had a share of the spoils after West Ham had gone ahead through Craig Bellamy. Flying under Gianfranco Zola, the Hammers secured a credible point away to Villa last weekend and will look to continue their improving run of results against Guus Hiddink's side, who won 4-0 here last season.

Ollie 4,400 Posted April 22, 2009 Share Posted April 22, 2009 Have a really good recent record at Upton Park and the way they play will probably play into our hands. Should be a good open game with a few goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carefreeluke 27 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 We may as well rest players for this game for the Barcelona match. Give a few of the young players a game. I doubt Barcelona will be resting players as they have a tough game on the weekend agaisnt Valencia. The league is over for us while Barcelona still have La Liga to win. I can't see Hiddink giving the young players a chance though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

changingman2000 35 Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 Given the Everton result, and with Barca on Tuesday, Hiddink may well rest a couple of players. I think we are on a sticky wicket with this game. The Hapless Hammers have absolutely fuck all to lose and will be well, well up for it. Settle for a draw methinks Even the fox's need to be forced into the West 'Am Chicken Run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
