Burnley and West Ham meet at Turf Moor on 7 February 2026 in a tense Premier League relegation battle. Burnley sit 19th on 15 points, West Ham 18th on 20, so a home win would drag the visitors deeper into trouble, while an away success opens a five-point gap. Recent history leans slightly towards West Ham, who have won two of the last three league meetings and are unbeaten in the last four.
Burnley’s momentum is poor. Their league form string of “LDDDL” underlines a side struggling to turn performances into wins, and just 3 victories from 24 matches overall is alarming. At Turf Moor they have 2 wins, 4 draws and 6 losses, scoring 12 and conceding 17 – an average of 1.0 scored and 1.4 conceded per home game. The statistics suggest a team that rarely gets blown away but often falls just short. Multiple absences deepen the concern: key names like Zeki Amdouni, Jordan Beyer, Josh Cullen, Connor Roberts and Mike Trésor are all listed as missing, which weakens both their spine and creativity.
West Ham, though only one place higher, arrive with slightly better momentum: “LWWLL” in the table data shows they have at least found wins recently, and they own 5 league victories overall. Away from home they have 2 wins, 4 draws and 6 defeats, with 13 scored and 22 conceded – 1.1 for and 1.8 against on the road. Defensively they are vulnerable, but their attack is comparable to Burnley’s, and they possess a genuine difference-maker in Jarrod Bowen, who has 8 league goals and is not listed as injured. The Hammers have managed just one clean sheet away all season, underlining the likelihood of both teams scoring.
Burnley’s home averages (1.0 for, 1.4 against) against West Ham’s away numbers (1.1 for, 1.8 against) suggest goals at both ends and a slight edge to the visitors’ attack. History favors West Ham and Burnley’s injury list is significant. We predict West Ham to edge it 2-1. In betting terms, that implies a lean towards West Ham double chance and over 1.5 goals, with both teams to score also statistically attractive.
