Chelsea v. West Ham Prediction: Match Preview, Odds, Betting Trends, Stats, and Best Bets
Graham Potter welcomes his former team Chelsea (0-1-0) to London Stadium Friday as the Blues take on West Ham (0-0-1). Last season, West Ham finished 14th in the Premier League, with Chelsea fourth. The visitors won 20 games, while West Ham achieved just 11 wins. Game Details and How to Watch West Ham v. Chelsea Date: Friday, August 22, 2025 Time: 3:00PM EST Site: London Stadium City: East London, England Network/Streaming: USA Network Each side was disappointing in their season-opener as the Blues played to a scoreless tie against Crystal Palace and while the Hammers were embarrassed away at newly promoted Sunderland, 3-0. Potter has yet to defeat his former club in seven previous attempts and Chelsea have won their last three against the Hammers. A Add to the list West Ham finished last season losing seven of their last eight at London Stadium. A glimmer of hope for the Hammers and their faithful is the fact they have not lost back-to-back games at home against Chelsea in 11 seasons. The Blues have only walked away from London Stadium with three points just three times in those 11 years. Before West Ham is completely buried, lets remember that Enzo Maresca's club managed but one shot on goal in the opener against Palace and that was in the 89th minute. After another summer of big money spent on signings to bolster the attack, supporters are left to wonder if their club is going to be improved at all this season. Chelsea will now be looking to avoid drawing consecutive blanks at the start of a league season for the first time since 1995-96, when their first two matches both ended goalless. Adding to the stress is Maresca has only managed two wins away from Stamford Bridge in the Blues' previous 11 league games. Is Chelsea going to be a contender for the title race at all this season? The lost points at Palace coupled with Friday's match against West Ham will not confirm they will challenge for league supremacy, but walking away with anything short of three points may eliminate them from truly threatening the Top of the Table. Amazing how much a negative result in a club's season opener can shift the market. Chelsea's odds to win the season-long title have grown to +900 while West Ham's relegation odds have shortened to +275. Best Bet: Chelsea are the best bet to win at West Ham in a London derby on Friday. The hosts suffered a 3-0 loss to Sunderland in their last Premier League game and will face a tougher task against Enzo Maresca's Chelsea team. Chelsea's last four Premier League games have all gone under and they have won two of their last three by the odd goal. A narrow 1-0 away win looks a decent correct score bet. *Spotlight iQ: Match Previews are provided by Spotlight Sports Group Follow our experts on socials to keep up with all the latest content from the staff: Jay Croucher (@croucherJD) Drew Dinsick (@whale_capper) Vaughn Dalzell (@VmoneySports) Trysta Krick (@Trysta_Krick) Joe Prince-Wright and Andy Edwards preview Matchweek 2's Fulham v.

Rory McIlroy makes ‘reluctant' confession after thrilling Masters win
Before adding a green jacket to his wardrobe in April, Rory McIlroy was under the impression he'd sport the coveted piece at every opportunity if he ever won the Masters. Now four months removed from his triumphant playoff victory at Augusta National, the Northern Irishman revealed Tuesday ahead of the Tour Championship that he's 'reluctant to wear' the iconic jacket. 'It's not as if I wear it a lot. I have it hanging in my wardrobe in a place where I can see it every day. I always thought if I had one — if I did win the Masters one day — I'd never have the thing off, and it hasn't been that way. I haven't worn it as much as I thought I would,' McIlroy said, according to the Associated Press. Advertisement 5 Rory McIlroy won his first Masters in April 2025.

'There were points in my career where I didn't know if I would have this nice garment over my shoulders,'' McIlroy said after the final round. 'I certainly didn't make it easy. I was nervous. It was one of the toughest days I've ever had on the golf course.' 5 Rory McIlroy had not won a major in 11 years until the April 2025 victory at Augusta National.

He finished the weekend at 11-under par. 'A lot of pent-up emotion that just came out on that 18 green,'' McIlroy said. 'A moment like that makes all the years and all the close calls worth it. It's nearly 11 years — not just about winning my next major, but the career Grand Slam, trying to join a group of five players to do it, you know, watching a lot of my peers get green jackets in the process.' Advertisement With the victory, McIlroy joined the elite group of Jack Nicklaus, Tiger Woods, Gary Player, Ben Hogan and Gene Sarazen who have won all four majors, which include The British Open, the PGA Championship and the U.S. Open. Although the 2026 Masters is still some time away, McIlroy is looking forward to defending his title with the green jacket in tow. 'It'll be lovely to next time go there and go up to the champions locker room and put on my green jacket and feel like I belong,' he said. 5 Rory McIlroy will compete at the Tour Championship this week in Atlanta.
