Nuno Espirito Santo's West Ham and Scott Parker's Burnley meet in an early season Premier League relegation six-pointer today with the Irons looking to make it two consecutive wins at the London Stadium.
The Hammers finally ended a nine-month wait for a home win by coming from behind to defeat Newcastle 3-1 last Sunday in what was also a first victory for Nuno at the fifth attempt.
His side could now move out of the bottom three with a win by two or more goals against Burnley, managed by former West Ham captain Parker. The Clarets lost last time out to leaders Arsenal but have been impressive against the sides around them, beating both Wolves and Leeds.
Can West Ham make it two in a row or will Burnley bring back that familiar feeling to the London Stadium? AllSportsPeople brings you this betting preview on a blockbuster weekend of Premier League action headlined by Man City vs. Liverpool at the Etihad.
West Ham vs. Burnley preview: Who will win?
West Ham will be confident of a second consecutive home win but they are still in a very fragile place as a team and a club with the revolt against the ownership set to continue today.
That could play into Burnley's hands and they will be confident of getting a result. It might not be a win but it would suit Parker more than Nuno.

West Ham vs. Burnley Score Prediction
West Ham know they will leapfrog Burnley with a big win but it's hard to back with any conviction despite their impressive victory over Newcastle last weekend. The Clarets will set up to frustrate and could earn themselves a point in a score draw. However, the Hammers will be buoyed by Burnley's defensive stats - they are allowing a league high average of 17.7 shots per game on their goal.
Prediction: West Ham 1-1 Burnley (6/1 with Bet365)
