Chelsea continued their impressive scoring streak at home and enhanced their chances of European football with a commanding 5-0 victory over West Ham. Mauricio Pochettino's team has scored 22 goals in their last six Premier League matches at Stamford Bridge, displaying a fluent attacking style that could have resulted in even more goals against the struggling visitors.

The first half saw Chelsea take a commanding lead, with Cole Palmer opening the scoring followed by Conor Gallagher's volley and Noni Madueke's header. Nicolas Jackson added two more goals after halftime, bringing his season tally to 13 league goals.

Chelsea's consecutive league wins for the first time since January lifted them to seventh place, indicating a positive response to their head coach's tactics after a challenging start to the season.

For West Ham, the match was disastrous, with their hopes of European qualification fading away. Chelsea's dominance was evident from early on, as they punished defensive errors to score goals at will. Despite a brief rally from West Ham in the second half, Chelsea's superiority was undeniable, sealing a comprehensive victory that left the visitors dejected and humiliated.
