Premier League Fixtures Preview

Team news will be available shortly, but for now, here are our predicted lineups for today's matches.

Burnley’s Struggle Continues

Burnley appear to be on the brink of relegation, with a defeat today likely to confirm their drop, despite some remaining mathematical hopes until mid-May. The team has struggled for months, failing to secure a win in their last 15 Premier League games. Their most recent performance was a heavy defeat to Sunderland, marked by a poor display that drew criticism from Scott Parker and Kyle Walker. Supporters will be hoping for a better showing and a lift in spirits when Burnley face West Ham, who sit just one place above them in the standings.

West Ham’s Challenge

Under Nuno Espirito Santo, West Ham's form has improved, but they still find themselves six points adrift of safety. A loss to Burnley today would represent a new low for the club, which is notable given that West Ham are the only team to have been defeated by bottom-placed Wolves this season. Matches like this are critical if the Hammers are to close the gap on teams such as Nottingham Forest, Leeds, and Crystal Palace, but they have previously faltered in similar fixtures.
