West Ham United defender James Collins (ankle) is out, but striker Chicharito is expected to be in the squad. 

Pedro Obiang (muscular) and Edimilson Fernandes (foot) have recovered and could feature.

Did you know?

West Ham have won their last four Premier League matches against Burnley. They have only won five consecutive matches versus a single opponent once before (v Blackburn Rovers between October 2006 and August 2008).

West Ham could win consecutive PL matches without conceding for the first time since December 2016.

Burnley are on their longest unbeaten run in the Premier League (W2 D3).

Robbie Brady has scored three goals in five Premier League matches versus West Ham, more than against any other side in the competition.

What the managers say

Sean Dyche: "To get off to the start we have is very pleasing, but there's plenty of work to do and we know that."
