West Ham lineup vs. Burnley: Predicted XI for Premier League clash

West Ham United will be without at least five players for Saturday’s Premier League clash with Burnley at the London Stadium.

Nicolas Fullkrug (thigh) and Konstantinos Mavropanos (muscles) are both targeting injury returns after the international break, while Olivier Scarles (shoulder), George Terreux (hamstrings) and Lukasz Fabianski (return) are also not available for selection.

Nuno Holy Spirit revealed that some unspecified players will have moves assessed before kick-off, but all being well the Hammers boss could name the same starting line-up that started the 3-1 home win against Newcastle United last weekend.

Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Jean-Clair Todibo, Max Kilman And El Hadji Malick Diouf could all retain their place in the final four, protecting the goalkeeper Alphonse Areola who seems to have regained the number 1 jersey after his summer signing Mads Hermansen since Nuno’s arrival.

After producing a man-of-the-match performance on his first PL start of the season against Newcastle, Freddie Potts hopes to be rewarded with a fresh start in midfield alongside Matheus Fernandes and Lucas PaquetáHowever Thomas Soucek will push for a recall.

Callum Wilson has only scored more Premier League goals against current clubs West Ham (12) and Everton (eight) than against Burnley (seven), netting six goals in his last four starts against the Clarets. The 33-year-old is expected to lead the line once again, with Jarrod Bowen And Crysencio Summerville provide support in attack.

Possible West Ham United starting lineup: Areola; Wan-Bissaka, Todibo, Kilman, Diouf; Potts, Fernandes; Bowen, Paqueta, Summerville; Wilson
