West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui has revealed that he has been left sweating on the fitness of two of his squad ahead of their clash with Chelsea.
The two sides lock horns on Saturday lunchtime, but West Ham may be without the services of former Chelsea man Emerson Palmieri, who is facing a late fitness test after picking up a knock.
“Fortunately Emi was not an important one, a big knock, but we have to review and wait every day. We have 48 hours to the match so we have time,” Lopetegui explained.
The Hammers boss also explained that summer addition Niclas Füllkrug was a doubt, which could see Michail Antonio lead the line once more.
