3' - West Ham win an early free-kick after Davide Zappacosta brings Manuel Lanzini down on the left wing. The Argentine playmaker dusts himself off to deliver the ball into the box but his cross is cleared.

GOAL! West Ham 1-0 Chelsea (Arnautovic)

6' - Lovely goal! Marko Arnautovic exchanges a slick one-two with Manuel Lanzini on the edge of the box before cutting in on his left foot and curling the ball beyond Thibaut Courtois and into the far corner.

West Ham have been by far the better team in the early stages.

10' - West Ham really have started this game superbly well. They're quicker to every second ball and look sharper than the visitors in every aspect. There's still a long way to go though, of course.

14' - Alvaro Morata wants a penalty after a coming-together with Winston Reid in the box but the referee rightly waves play on. That would've been such a soft decision.

18' - Cesar Azpilicueta's searching cross in towards Alvaro Morata is caught at the second time of asking by Adrian.

20' - Chance! Angelo Ogbonna does well to get to Cesar Azpilicueta's cross ahead of Alvaro Morata but the defender's header loops straight to Eden Hazard, whose first-time volley from inside the box bounces a good few feet wide of Adrian's far post.
