West Ham United welcome Chelsea to the London Stadium in an early afternoon Premier League clash on Sunday, and Manuel Pellegrini is expected to go with an unchanged lineup.
The Hammers secured their first win of the season against Everton last time out as a double from Andriy Yarmolenko and a delightful goal from Marko Arnautovic saw them run out 3-1 winners at Goodison Park.
West Ham now have a tough test to back up that result against an unbeaten Chelsea side on Sunday, and Pellegrini is thought to be ready to name the same starting XI, with a 4-3-3 the expected formation for the Hammers.
In goal, Lukasz Fabianski is expected to retain his place.
A back four of Pablo Zabaleta, Fabian Balbuena, Issa Diop and Arthur Masuaku is expected to line up, with Ryan Fredericks and Aaron Cresswell continuing to miss out.
In midfield, a holding trio of Declan Rice, Mark Noble, and Pedro Obiang really clicked against Everton and are therefore all expected to retain their spots, although Carlos Sanchez is a possibility for Pellegrini.
In attack, Yarmolenko is undroppable after his double last weekend, with Felipe Anderson set to line up on the opposite flank.
Through the middle is expected to be Arnautovic as usual, although the £100,000-a-week maverick [Spotrac] is facing a late fitness test on a knee complaint. Should he not be fit, then Javier Hernandez or Lucas Perez will inevitably be called upon.
