Chelsea vs West Ham: Who is the referee and VAR for the Premier League clash? | OneFootball

The officials have been confirmed for Chelsea's Premier League clash against West Ham on Saturday evening.

Chelsea host the Hammers for their final London derby of January - the sixth this month - as they eye another victory to extend their winning run to five games in a row in all competitions.

Head coach Liam Rosenior has made quite the start to life as Chelsea boss following his appointment at the beginning of the month, having lost just one of his first six games in charge.

West Ham, who are currently five points adrift from safety, will be desperate to claim a third consecutive Premier League win as they look to close the gap to Nottingham Forest.
