Got work I can't get out of tomorrow, haven't missed a kick this season, if I haven't gone, I've watched on a stream and gutted I won't be able to for this one!

I'll be home by 6, does anyone know where I could watch the entire match? A site that replays the game? Im hoping to not find out the result and watch it when I get home! (And like a sad weirdo pretend it was live)

I’d be keeping Antonio at right back if he’s fit enough after the Southampton game.

Burnley are a defensive side and his running from deep will be helpful against them. They’ll be looking to hit us from set pieces so having Antonio able to start the counter is also beneficial.

Antonio Diop Ogbonna Cresswell
Rice Obiang
Noble

Would be very happy with a point. But bearing in mind that we could go 7th with a win, and the fact that this is West Ham we are talking about, and the fact that there have already been a couple of funny results over the festive period already and we are probably due one then I can only see a convincing Burnley win.

3-0

Two changes for me: Carroll and Arnie for Perez and Diangana

I've always liked Burnley and I respect Sean Dyche for what he achieved last season but this season they've become rather thuggish in their play [ the tackle on Diangana springs to mind ] in their desperation for points - yes freak results happen , look at Tottenham yesterday , Crystal Palace at Manchester City recently , yes the Southampton game will have taken its toll and Burnley were given an extra day off to rest before playing us today and yes we may well have half our squad out injured but West Ham are a bloody good side now , we're a match for anyone and I refuse to listen to any predictions putting us down for a loss especially that overpaid excuse for a football pundit who goes by the name of ' Lawro ' .

We have nothing to fear but fear itself and we certainly do not have to fear that imposter .

I'm not so sure, I recall playing at Turf Moor a year or 2 back, he started and Dyche had clearly instructed his centre backs to throw themselves to the floor early doors when jumping against Carroll, resulting in him being booked very early on, and thereby rendered ineffective for the rest of the game.

I'd start with Diangana as a No.10, lots of quick footwork in front of their cloggers and hopefully see them lose a CB to a careless tackle.

A day for skill and technique.

I really hope Anderson plays. Lowton is suspended and I think Anderson will destroy Bardsley.

Staggered to see some putting Carroll in their line-ups.
He’s looked unfit and pretty useless in each of his recent cameos. Also a walking yellow/red card at the moment. Also he plays into Burnley’s strengths but doesn’t expose their weaknesses.
Basically there is no logical reason for starting him.

This site will have the full match available within about an hour of the full time whistle (usually):
https://www.reddit.com/r/footballhighlights/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

No results or details of the match given so fear not. Might need to be careful with the thumbnail giving something away but usually they choose one from early in the match.

It’s strange, for the first time in god knows how long I go into games like these with an expectation to win. Against Southampton my mates were saying at best a draw and I was confident of the win even though they were on a mini revival.

If Anderson plays like he can we will win well. The squad are playing as a unit and although we still look naive defensively I don’t think Burnley offer enough going forward to beat their poor defense and our likelihood to score goals. We’ll concede but score 3 or 4.

I’m going 1-3 to us.

Am going to wait for our 18 to be named before making a prediction, but I would like to see Zabaleta back and Antonio up front instead of Perez.

Masuaku for fresh legs and more height. Noble can stay on the bench (will start against Brighton).

I thought Diop was a bit poor against Southampton, so hope he gets back to his usual high standard.

It will be hugely disappointing if they lose today or even draw.

So of course they will lose 0-1.
