[Teams] West Ham vs Chelsea: Confirmed Line-Ups

Chelsea travel across London to take on West Ham at Upton Park looking to close the gap at the top of the league.

The Blues went into the weekend sitting fourth in the table, just four points off leaders Arsenal, so will hope to take advantage of any slip up from the Gunners and cut their advantage.

Jose Mourinho has left Ashley Cole on the bench despite the defender being passed fit. Cesar Azpilicueta retains his place at left back. Samuel Eto’o is preferred up front with Fernando Torres out injured.

Here are the confirmed line-ups:

West Ham

Jaaskelainen, Nolan, Tomkins, Collison, Morrison, Noble, O’Brien, Collins, Demel, Downing, J.Cole

Subs: McCartney, Jarvis, Maiga, Adrian, Taylor, Diame, C.Cole

Chelsea

Cech; Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta; Mikel, Lampard; Ramires, Oscar, Hazard; Eto’o

Subs: Schwarzer, Cole, Essien, Mata, Willian, Schurrle, Ba.
