Posted By: VICTOR N April 8, 2019

Chelsea boss Maurizio Sarri has named a strong line-up for the derby game against West Ham, and has stuck with two Chelsea academy graduates in his starting line-up.

Sarri has made just three changes from the win against Brighton, as Antonio Rudiger replaces Andreas Christensen in central defence and Gonzalo Higuain replaces Olivier Giroud up front, but Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ruben Loftus-Cheek both keep their starting spots.

Chelsea starting XI: Kepa; Azpilicueta, Rudiger, David Luiz, Emerson; Jorginho, Kante, Loftus-Cheek; Hudson-Odoi, Higuain, Hazard.

Subs: Caballero, Christensen, Kovacic, Barkley, Willian, Pedro, Giroud.

West Ham starting XI: Fabianski; Fredericks, Balbuena, Ogbonna, Cresswell; Lanzini, Rice, Noble, Anderson; Hernandez, Arnautovic.
Subs: Adrian, Diop, Masuaku, Obiang, Snodgrass, Perez, Nasri.

Referee: Chris Kavanagh.

Chelsea is more than just a football club to me; it's a passion I share, and my affinity with the Chelsea badge is one that will last forever. As far as watching my favourite team is concerned, I'd rather miss a meal than miss a Chelsea game.
