Chelsea face a short trip across the English capital this weekend as they take on local rivals West Ham on August 20.
The Blues kicked off Premier League life under Mauricio Pochettino with a 2-2 home draw against Liverpool last weekend as David Moyes' Hammers drew 1-1 away at Bournemouth.
Pochettino's side have continued their transfer spending since that match, with Moises Caicedo arriving in a £115 million / $147 million deal from Brighton & Hove Albion, as Moyes still looks to strengthen his squad using the money generated by Declan Rice's move to Arsenal.
The Sporting News looks at the key details ahead of this game, including how to watch it across the world, kickoff time and the latest team news.

West Ham vs Chelsea lineups
Moyes is expected to have a fully fit squad to pick from ahead of this game, but he is expected to make changes from a frustrating performance at Bournemouth, with midfield duo James Ward-Prowse and Edson Alvarez in line for their debuts.
West Ham lineup (4-3-3): Fabianski (GK) — Coufal, Zouma, Aguerd, Emerson — Ward-Prowse, Soucek, Alvarez — Bowen, Antonio, Benrahma
Caicedo could be the latest star name to make their Chelsea debut this season with fellow new signing Christopher Nkunku ruled out. Benoit Badiashile and Trevor Chalobah are close to a return, but Reece James could be missing for some time after sustaining another hamstring injury.
Chelsea lineup (3-4-3): Sanchez (GK) — Disasi, Silva, Colwill — Gusto, Caicedo, Fernandez, Chilwell — Sterling, Jackson, Mudryk
West Ham vs Chelsea prediction, odds
Chelsea are still finding their feet under Pochettino and the Argentinian will be confident of a revival at the club this season. However, a gritty West Ham team under Moyes have consistently caused problems for the Blues, who have managed just one win in their past six Premier League trips to London Stadium.
Prediction: West Ham 1-1 Chelsea
