Chelsea secured a crucial 2-1 win over West Ham United at Stamford Bridge, boosting their chances of finishing in the top four of the Premier League. The Blues came from behind to win, with goals from Pedro Neto and an own goal from Aaron Wan-Bissaka.
The win was especially sweet for Chelsea, as it came against their former boss Graham Potter, who left the club in 2023 to take over at West Ham United. Potter’s return to Stamford Bridge met with a mixture of applause and boos from the Chelsea faithful, but his team was unable to spoil the party.
West Ham United took the lead in the 25th minute through a well-taken goal from Jarrod Bowen. However, Chelsea equalized through Pedro Neto’s fine strike. The Blues dominated the second half, and their pressure paid off when Aaron Wan-Bissaka scored an own goal in the 74th minute.
Chelsea will be looking to win back to back games for the First time since December as they visit Anfield to face the in-form league leaders Liverpool.
