West Ham United will be confident of making it back-to-back wins in the Premier League when newly-promoted Burnley visit London Stadium on Saturday at 3pm GMT.
The Irons defeated Newcastle United 3-1 on home turf last Sunday, coming from a goal down to score a first top-flight victory since the end of August.
The likes of Lucas Paquetá (9), Matheus Fernandes and Aaron Wan-Bissaka (7) and Tomáš Souček (6) all posted positive numbers for their Fantasy Premier League (FPL) managers, who will now look to tinker with their line-ups ahead of Saturday’s deadline.
Burnley have won just two of their last eleven top-flight away games against West Ham (D2 L7) and, with that in mind, it could be a shrewd move to add Nuno's Irons to your FPL squad ahead of the visit of Scott Parker’s Clarets.
It all points towards an exciting clash in east London across a packed weekend where FPL managers will be looking to gain maximum points.
The Gameweek 11 transfer deadline is set for 11am GMT on Saturday 8 November.

One of our own…
After the Newcastle contest, Academy of Football graduate Freddie Potts (£4.4m) was serenaded by the home faithful, having put in a mature and composed display on his first Premier League start for his boyhood Club.
The 22-year-old midfielder, who was voted as the Premier League’s Man of the Match, made six clearances and four tackles, won five duels, and made four final-third entries and created two chances in what was an outstanding display against one of the Premier League’s sternest midfields.
And had it not been for a narrow offside call on Tomáš Souček (£5.7m), Potts would have capped his first start with a goal and weighed in with a higher points total.
Wilson’s record against Burnley catches the eye…
Callum Wilson (£5.8m) led the line against Newcastle on what was just his second Premier League start for the Hammers, and the striker did a fabulous job of stifling the visitors, as he jostled with defenders and found space in behind the defensive line.
Our No9 has scored seven career goals against the Clarets, including six in his last four starts. Furthermore, Wilson has also scored in five of his last seven starts against newly-promoted teams.
In Wilson’s case, the attacking returns could continue against Burnley this weekend.
Areola can keep it clean…
Burnley have had the fewest shots in the Premier League this season (74), with this average of 7.4 shots per game the lowest by a team on record in a Premier League season since 1997/98, so Alphonse Areola (£4.3m) can aim to claim his first clean sheet of 2025/26 against the Clarets.
The 32-year-old produced another outstanding performance between the sticks against Newcastle, where our No23 made several crucial saves, most notably to deny Anthony Gordon, to play his part in a resolute defensive display at London Stadium. He can repeat that against Burnley.
