West Ham Form
Burnley Form
Get ready for a Premier League showdown at the London Stadium on Saturday, 8 November 2025, kicking off at 15:00. It’s West Ham vs Burnley, and this one has all the ingredients for a tense, goal-filled clash. Both sides are struggling for consistency, but with plenty of attacking flair and a few defensive question marks, this fixture could deliver real drama. If you’re looking for early insight into a West Ham vs Burnley prediction, here’s everything you need to know.
West Ham, led by Graham Potter, head into this match on a confidence boost after a much-needed 3-1 win over Newcastle United. That result snapped a run of poor form and reminded fans what this side can do when it clicks. Lucas Paquetá was the star man, pulling the strings in midfield and earning the Ladbrokes Man of the Match award for his creativity and work rate.
The Hammers lined up in a 4-5-1 formation last time out, with Alphonse Areola in goal and a back four of Aaron Wan-Bissaka, Maximilian Kilman, Jean-Clair Todibo, and El Hadji Malick Diouf. The midfield included Jarrod Bowen, Mateus Fernandes, Freddie Potts, Paquetá, and Crysencio Summerville, with Callum Wilson leading the line.
West Ham’s home form hasn’t been great, with one win and four defeats at the London Stadium this season. They’ve scored five and conceded thirteen in those games, keeping zero clean sheets. But that recent victory could be the turning point they desperately needed.
Burnley, under Scott Parker, are also searching for momentum after a 0-2 home defeat to Arsenal. The Clarets set up in a 5-4-1, with Martin Dúbravka between the posts and a back line featuring Kyle Walker, Axel Tuanzebe, Maxime Esteve, and Quentin Hartman. Josh Cullen and Lesley Ugochukwu anchored the midfield, while Jaidon Anthony and Zian Flemming carried the attacking threat.
Despite the loss, Burnley have looked competitive in patches — recent wins over Wolves and Leeds show they can deliver when given space. However, their defence remains a worry, especially away from home where they concede an average of three goals per game.
Manager: Graham Stephen Potter
Goalkeeper: Areola
Defenders: Wan-Bissaka, Kilman, Todibo, Diouf
Midfielders: Fernandes, Potts, Paquetá, Bowen, Summerville
Forward: Wilson
Key Player: Lucas Paquetá – fresh off a standout performance, he’s the creative heartbeat of this side.
Manager: Scott Matthew Parker
Goalkeeper: Dubravka
Defenders: Walker, Tuanzebe, Esteve, Hartman, Laurent
Midfielders: Ugochukwu, Cullen, Florentino, Anthony
Forward: Flemming
Key Player: Jaidon Anthony – Burnley’s spark in attack, capable of stretching defences and creating chances.
Looking at both sides’ form, it’s fair to expect goals at both ends. West Ham have failed to keep a clean sheet all season, while Burnley haven’t managed one away from home either. Both teams average over two goals conceded per game, so “both teams to score” feels like one of the safest angles here.
West Ham’s home advantage and attacking options, especially with Bowen and Paquetá linking up, should give them the edge. Burnley have shown resilience on the road, but their leaky defence often undoes their hard work.
Best Tip: Both Teams to Score
This one could easily swing either way. West Ham finally looked sharp against Newcastle, while Burnley are unpredictable but dangerous when given space to counter. Still, the Hammers’ quality in midfield and home crowd behind them make them slight favourites.
So, the West Ham vs Burnley prediction leans towards a narrow home win — something like a 2-1 feels realistic given the stats and styles of play. Expect plenty of chances, end-to-end football, and a few nervy defensive moments from both.
Match Prediction: West Ham to win. Bet with bet365.
Both teams tend to score, but neither side can defend consistently. West Ham’s home record may not inspire full confidence, but that victory against Newcastle showed improvement. Burnley’s away record (1 win, 4 losses) suggests they’ll struggle to keep up for 90 minutes.
Correct Score Prediction: West Ham 2-1 Burnley. Bet with bet365.
Recent form points strongly toward goals. West Ham’s matches average around 3 goals per game at home, while Burnley’s away fixtures average 2.4. Neither side keeps clean sheets, and both carry attacking intent.
Over 2.5 Goals looks like the standout pick. A 2-1 or 3-1 type of result fits the trend perfectly.
Over/Under Prediction: Over 2.5 Goals. Bet with bet365.
That combination captures the attacking tone of this matchup and the players most likely to make an impact.
Bet Builder Tip: West Ham to win, Both Teams to Score, and Lucas Paquetá to score anytime. Bet with bet365.
