should be a win for us against west ham united, they are not likely to be a pushover but our confidence must be sky high right now.
Not a team I have any ill feelings toward particularly, quite liked them over the years.
They probably will improve as the season progresses. Our recent form suggests we will beat them, my feeling is a 2-0 win for us . would prefer to score 6 or 7, but need to be realistic unfortunately.

no takers?

I think that we may struggle in this one as we always seem lethargic after the international breaks - much as I dislike West Ham I can only see a dour draw - hope I am wrong though and as always UTC !!

I was wondering a few days ago, what was the highest score we have ever won by and what is the highest any Premier League / Division One team has won by?

3 points would be fabulous on Saturday. I'd like to see a really great exciting performance from the team. UTC!

1-1 Hope we win, obv, but it'll be very tough.
Over confidence will be our biggest foe.

2.0

West Ham have conceded the most goals in the league apart from Crystal Palace. We need to be play 442 and score that first goal. If we do, I can see a 2-0 win. If we concede first then I think we will only manage a draw.

West Ham always seem to be struggling until they play us and then they find a way to win.

Hope we can get at least a point but think it could be 0-2

Considering West Ham have the worst keeper in the League I can see at least a couple of goals for us. They'll never get through our defence. I'm going with 2-0 goals by Brady (free Kick) and Vokes (headed corner)

I hope we don't go 4-4-2 to be honest.

I can see it being a really tight game, with a goal for each side.

We have to realise now that teams will come to us and not expect to win, and we will have to deal with that.

Burnley 4...west ham 1

I think West Ham have won the last five against us so they are a bogey team.

But we are in a good place and they have a leaky defence.

A win on Saturday would be the biggest result of the season so far.

I'm going 3-1 (Wood 2 and Defour, Chiqarito for the Hammers)

Depends on which West Ham turn up and how strong we are defensively.

Could be a close game, 2-1 to us maybe.

0-1 ( hoping to tempt fate )

Our home form has been scratchy, they've been poor. Hart has been a flop. It's all the makings of a 1-0 away win , with Hart having a blinder or his easiest afternoon of the season.

Their win over Swansea has eased some pressure from Bilic,can see a hard-fought 1-1, which wouldn't be a bad return, as long as we beat Newcastle in a couple of weeks,don't expect anything from City so that is a free hit.

Bilic will be crapping himself - a 3-0 defeat could see him getting the chop. Koeman can consider himself lucky he's still in a job and we all know what happened to de Boer. We must be one of the most feared teams in the league at the moment - especially by under pressure managers.

Taking into account our home form I'm going to be conservative with this one.......... a straightforward 4-0 victory for the mighty Clarets. Goal this weekend coming curtesy of Arfield, Ward, Mee and D4

Lawro , the font of all footballing knowledge, predicts a draw, as does his " Celebrity " guest pundit, Wretch32 ( No, me neither! )....

So that's that then !

Think a draw is the most likely outcome.

West Ham will be a massive threat from set plays with Carroll, Kouyate, Reid, Fonte etc. They have their fair share of big units without doubt. I see Collins is missing for them.

If they get Carroll, Chicarito, Arnautovic, Antonio and Lanzini in the same 11 we'll be in for a long day. I think West Ham are a quality side just waiting for that spark to set them going... hopefully it won't happen tomorrow! Fingers crossed we'll get at least a point but I fear a home defeat by the odd goal could be on the cards (it all depends on starting 11's).

I can see a game similar to Crystal Palace with With West Ham having more chances and more possession but us nicking something.

3-1 Brady 2, Barnes

Can see this being a really tight affair, just hope we can nick it and upset their
Extremely arrogant fan base
1-0 clarets Brady free kick

Two nil Burnley.

If West Ham come and attack then I think we will win. If they sit back it will be 1-0 or 0-1 either way.

heart says 2-0 Clarets head says Clarets 0 Hammers 2 (bogey team)

Burnley 0 west ham 1

West Ham will play the typical come for a point and try and nick three strategy. If we knock it about quickly and up the tempo throughout, I can see a handsome victory.
A slow, measured performance will mean a Palace sort of game - West Ham are no mugs - and I guess a point would have to do.

West ham have a decent record against east lancs teams.

2-1 Brady and Wood

Stick to Rovers predictions!

2 a piece. Last minute scrappy equaliser by the cockney cants.

I expect them to have the most possession, chances and come out to win. Which will play perfectly into our hands.

2-1 to the clarets.
