Hammers targeting Blues double

The U18s are hoping to record a second win over the league leaders on Saturday
The West Ham United U18s will be looking to complete the double over league leaders Chelsea this weekend when they travel to face the Blues on Saturday 5 December.

The Hammers beat their west London rivals 2-0 back in September thanks to goals from Declan Rice and Idris Kanu in what has been Chelsea’s only league defeat this season.

Now, Saturday’s hosts are two points clear with a game in hand over second placed Reading with 36 points from 15 games.

Meanwhile the young Hammers are currently sixth, however a win on Saturday could take them to third as they try and secure a top four finish and qualify for elite level of the play offs.

The U18s kick off on Saturday 5 December at 11am, make sure you follow @whufc_official and whufc.com for updates, a match report and reaction.
