Venue: Olympic Stadium

Match Preview:

West Ham imploded last weekend to Swansea 4-1 and it’s becoming all to apparent that David Moyes is struggling with his team. The Hammers have won just 1 game in their past four and have looked toothless in recent weeks conceding 11 goals in just four matches. However they have won 73% of their total points at home and are currently on a 4 game unbeaten home run.

Burnley got a terrific result over Everton after coming back from a goal behind last weekend and that result put them just 5 points behind Arsenal in what has overall been an brilliant season for the club.

Whilst form is good with just one defeat in their past five, their away form remains poor with no wins in 3 months and they have drawn almost 50% of games on the road.

West Ham vs Burnley Prediction:

West Ham have all the qualities to stay up, they just need the motivation and there is intense pressure on Moyes now to deliver. This fixture, at home, against a team they have a great record against is the perfect opportunity to kick start their survival hopes. A win would only move the Hammers one position up but it would give them the hope to kick on. One team here needs the win, and that’s the home side.
