Premier League 2025-2026: West Ham-Burnley, the likely lineups.

After a lackluster start to the season, to say the least, West Ham regained victory last Sunday with new coach Nuno Espirito Santo on the bench.

However, to understand if the Portuguese coach&#8217s cure is actually effective or if it was an isolated result, we will have to see the Hammers at work this Saturday, in the match against another team destined to fight for salvation, Burnley.

Won&#8217t be there for the home team will be striker Füllkrug, who is still out with a thigh injury; also absent will be defender Mavropanos, who is also stuck with physical troubles. Espirito Santo will rely on Wilson in attack, barring any surprises, with support on the three-quarter line from Bowen, the’former Milan player Paquetá and Summerville.

As for the Clarets, coach Scott Parker aims to bounce back after the 0-2 loss to Arsenal, which ended a run of two consecutive wins against Leeds and Wolverhampton. A clearly offensive-inspired 4-3-3-3 is possible, with ex-Salernitana and Lazio Tchaouna, Foster and Anthony jostling in the offensive zone, with Ugochukwu, Florentino and Cullen in midfield.

Probable lineups

WEST HAM (4-2-3-1): Areola; Wan-Bissaka, Todibo, Kilman, Diouf; Potts, Fernandes; Bowen, Paquetá, Summerville; Wilson. All. Espirito Santo.

BURNLEY (4-3-3): Dubravka; Walker, Tuanzebe, Esteve, Hartman; Ugochukwu, Florentino, Cullen; Tchaouna, Foster, Anthony. All. Parker.
