The ref blows up for half time. West Ham have looked inventive and positive, although they have sat back on the lead for large periods. Could this be David Moyes' first West Ham win?

Masuaku beats his man with some stunning Brazilian-style flair on the left flank. The crowd love it!

45'
Masuaku puts a cross in from the left and wins a corner. The home side are, understandably, in no rush to take it.

38'
Masuaku takes the ball off of Zappacosta's toe and has a shot from distance, which trickles wide. The Italian had no idea the ball was about to be taken from him in a dangerous area.
35'
Morata blasts a loose ball over the bar. Chelsea are definitely enjoying more possession, but West Ham are nullifying everything they do in the final third.
34'
Zappacosta sends in a cross from the right but Morata heads wide after out-jumping Ogbonna. The Spaniard should have done better there.
32'
Chelsea's subs are passing a hot water bottle among them. Don't they have enough resources to buy more than one?

Hazard and Bakayoko exchange some lovely passes on the edge of the area but Cresswell steps up to intercept. Cresswell has been excellent so far.
31'
