over 2.5 goals.

its always nice to see a side like chelsea gifting really soft goals because you know that in any game, even against an arsenal or spurs, the blues have a couple of goals in them. its great from an overs point of view.

they have a big problem with that keeper. he has no confidence and the back 4 have no confidence in him. he wont come for cross balls and the odd time he does its done without any conviction and it leads to panic.

everton simply played long balls into their box last weekend because they knew no one, not even john terry who is off form, would deal with it. 2 goals were scored by everton from knocking it long, a couple of more probably should have been. it was school boy stuff from the chelsea defence.

west ham are in deep trouble, i think they can get out of it but having the worst defensive record is not helping. they lost upson to injury and ofcourse collins went to villa because the hammers needed the cash, they are so weak and inexperienced at the back.

i would say one thing for west ham. at home they try to play football. maybe thats not whats needed at this time but its the way zola played and what he believes in so fair play to him.

i think this game is going to be end to end, a typical derby game with 2 sides having a real go. with neither looking confident at the back i dont expect any problems getting 3 goals in what should be a terrific game of football.

wh v chelsea over 2.5 goals with pp at 1.73
