West Ham United and Chelsea square off in a derby at the London Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Kick-off is at 16:30 BST.

James Ward-Prowse makes his debut for the hosts after his £30m move from Southampton, replacing Pablo Fornals in David Moyes’ starting XI.

Meanwhile, £4.0m goalkeeper Alphonse Areola continues in goal.

As for Chelsea, Malo Gusto comes in for the injured Reece James, suggesting Mauricio Pochettino will stick with the 3-4-2-1 formation he used against Liverpool in Gameweek 1.

Moises Caicedo is among the substitutes but fellow new signing Romeo Lavia fails to make the matchday squad.

GAMEWEEK 2 LINE-UPS

West Ham United XI: Areola, Coufal, Zouma, Aguerd, Emerson, Soucek, Ward-Prowse, Bowen, Paqueta, Benrahma, Antonio

Subs: Fabianski, Johnson, Cresswell, Ogbonna, Fornals, Cornet, Alvarez, Ings, Mubama

Chelsea XI: Sanchez, Disasi, Silva, Colwill, Gusto, Enzo, Gallagher, Chilwell, Sterling, Chukwuemeka, Jackson

Subs: Bergstrom, Cucurella, Humphreys, Maatsen, Ugochukwu, Caicedo, Madueke, Mudryk, Burstow
