L Mousset too played a vital part as the attacker assisted as many as three times. J Fleck also put his name on the score sheet and ensured a big victory for his club.
On the contrary, West Ham Utd will have this trip to the Turf Moor following their home fixture against Newcastle Utd. The Hammers to have suffered a defeat in their latest outing.

Predicted Result: Burnley 1 – 2 West Ham
Match Preview: The Clarets will have the privilege to play at the home. But their recent form hasn’t been impressive at all. However, they have bagged all the 3 points the last time they hosted the Hammers at the Turf Moor. Thus they will feature as the favorites in this encounter. I expect them to go with attacking tactics in this fixture as well.
On the contrary, West Ham Utd will play away from the abode. They will come into this fixture without a win in the last 6 matches. Thus they may feel a lack of confidence before taking on the Clarets.
Coming t the prediction, I back both sides to score. Nevertheless, my pick for this game is a 2-1 away victory for the Irons.
