West Ham United v Chelsea: Squad sheets Trips to the Boleyn Ground have represented easy pickingsfor Chelsea in recent times, with only two points shed in their last six visits. Perhaps that was why Sam Allardyce sounded a note of caution ahead of this derby despite thefact the visitors arrive without a win in six league games and with fans still deeply unsettled by the arrival of Rafael Benítez. "Rafa has already sorted out what was a problem under Roberto [Di Matteo]," said Allardyce, reflecting upon Chelsea's successive goalless draws underthe Spaniard. Benítez will continue to juggle his resources, and may rest Oscar as he seeks a win to ease the tension.
