Chelsea secured a 2-1 win at home over West Ham United in the Premier League on Monday, February 3 over former manager Graham Potter. The West London side came from a goal behind to secure the win in their London derby clash with the side from East London.
Jarrod Bowen opened the scoring in the 42nd minute after latching on to a Levi Colwill back pass to open the scoring for the Irons. The Blues had to wait until the second half to draw level when Pedro Neto slammed in a rebound from an Enzo Fernandez shot in the 64th minute. The hosts took the lead in the 74th minute after Cole Palmer's effort on goal took a huge deflection off Aaron Wan-Bissaka to see the match end 2-1.
