BURNLEY are in the capital this weekend as they face West Ham United at the London Stadium (3pm). Here's all you need to know ahead of the game.
KEY BATTLE
MARKO Arnautovic missed West Ham’s draw at Leicester City last weekend with illness but should be back to lead the line at the London Stadium, where his clever movement will test Ben Mee and James Tarkowski.
Burnley had a great day out here back in April, winning 3-0 as the Hammers imploded and fans protested against the owners. Ashley Barnes opened the scoring on 66 minutes before Chris Wood piled on the misery with two more.
PREDICTED TEAMS
West Ham: Lukasz Fabianski, Pablo Zabaleta, Fabian Balbuena, Issa Diop, Arthur Masuaku, Declan Rice, Grady Diangana, Angelo Ogbonna, Robert Snodgrass, Felipe Anderson, Marko Arnautovic
Burnley: Joe Hart, Matt Lowton, James Tarkowski, Ben Mee, Charlie Taylor, Johann Berg Gudmundsson, Jack Cork, Steven Defour, Robbie Brady, Jeff Hendrick, Sam Vokes
REFEREE
Roger East
THE ODDS
The Clarets are 15/4 to get back to winning ways with three points at the London Stadium. West Ham are 8/11 to win and the draw is 13/5. A repeat of last season’s 3-0 success for Burnley is a 50/1 shot, with Ashley Barnes 8/1 to score first.
