Fellow London rivals West Ham and Chelsea will face off on Wednesday at Stamford Bridge with both teams in completely different situations. West Ham have lost four of their last five while Chelsea have won their last five and the Premier League table shows it; Chelsea are two points behind leaders Arsenal while only a point separates West Ham from the bottom three.
The men from east London have not won at Stamford Bridge since 2002, losing seven of the subsequent eight encounters including the last meeting in November when Chelsea routed the Hammers at Upton Park as Lampard's brace powered the Blues to a 3-0 win.

Petr Cech, John Terry and Cesar Azpilicueta are expected to return for the hosts after the trio were rested for Sunday's win over Stoke City in the FA Cup. Fernando Torres remains sidelined with knee ligament damage.
Nemanja Matic could make his first league start while there might be a debut for Mohamed Salah, who signed from Basel on Sunday.
West Ham are continuing to struggle with injuries for the match, but Guy Demel, Joey O'Brien and Winston Reid could all be back for manager Sam Allardyce.
New loan signings Antonio Nocerino and Marco Borriello may be named among the substitutes for the match in West London.
