West Ham vs Chelsea - Kick-off time, TV channel and live stream details
Both West Ham and Chelsea will be looking to move up the table when they meet in a London derby this weekend.
The two teams have both performed below expectations so far this season, with Chelsea floundering in mid-table, while West Ham are teetering above the relegation zone. Things have looked more promising for the Hammers of late, following a win over Everton which lifted them out of the drop zone before taking a point from Newcastle.
Meanwhile Chelsea boss Graham Potter is figuring out how to fit all his new signings into his injury-hit side and get them playing the same tune after the Blues' £323million outlay in January.
Here is all you need to know about the match.
When is West Ham vs Chelsea?
The two sides will meet in the Premier League clash at the London Stadium on Saturday February 11 with kick-off scheduled for 12:30pm.
Chelsea complete record-breaking Enzo Fernandez transfer after deadline day rush
Chelsea edged out the Hammers in the previous fixture between them this season back in September, though the game ended in controversy. Goals from Ben Chilwell and a late winner from Kai Havertz had cancelled out Michail Antonio's opener, before Maxwel Cornet saw his 90th-minute equaliser chalked off following a VAR check.
West Ham's Jarrod Bowen was adjudged to have fouled Chelsea keeper Edouard Mendy prior to Cornet applying the finish. But the decision was harsh after replays appeared to show the Senegalese stopper diving at Bowen's feet rather than the England star making contact.
What channel is the game on?
The game will be broadcast live on BT Sport 1 and BT Sport Ultimate with coverage beginning from 11:30am. Subscribers can also stream the match using the BT Sport app.

Mateo Kovacic is a doubt and will be assessed ahead of the fixture, though Joao Felix is available again after his suspension. One player who is available but may not make the squad is Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, who is reportedly on the verge of a move to MLS outfit LAFC.
Meanwhile West Ham have several injury issues of their own, with Kurt Zouma, Maxwel Cornet, Alphonse Areola and Jan Thilo Kehrer all on the treatment table. Gianluca Scamacca is also set for a late fitness test to determine his availability.
