The Gameweek begins in the vast amphitheatre that is the London Stadium as West Ham host champions Chelsea in the early kick-off.

From a Fantasy perspective, the big news is that Alvaro Morata starts for Antonio Conte’s side, diffusing Friday’s reports stating that he had pulled up in training. The Spaniard leads the line for the Blues, with Eden Hazard presumably deployed up in support in the No 10 role. That pair have scored or assisted 12 of Chelsea’s 15 goals away from home this season and will surely carry the threat to the Hammers.

Elsewhere for Chelsea, Andreas Christensen earns a sixth successive start in defence, while David Zappacosta earns a recall at right wing-back with Victor Moses rested to the bench, this despite his two assists in the 3-1 win over Newcastle United.

The West Ham line-up includes Adrian in goal, with his performance at Manchester City in Gameweek 15 earning him the nod over Joe Hart. Both Andy Carroll and Chicharito have returned to fitness but are kept in reserve by David Moyes as Michail Antonio leads the attack.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

      Chelsea played into their hands

      Same tactics of playing the ball down the middle. They didn't know what to do as hazard completely marked out of the game
