All eyes will be on Turf Moor when Burnley and West Ham lock horns in a highly-anticipated Championship round one derby. As West Ham are a more experienced side than Burnley, we predict a 2-1 away win. The Clarets will be looking to build on their EFL Cup success after defeating Notts County on penalties. Defensive midfielder Ugo Raghouber is expected to make his Championship debut, while Maxime Esteve, Luca Koleosho and Loum Tchaouna are no longer part of the squad. Burnley have struggled badly for consistency, failing to win any of their last 10 matches and conceding 1.80 goals per game. BTTS landed in 80% of those fixtures.
West Ham, meanwhile, aim to build on a convincing 3-1 EFL Cup win over Portsmouth. The Hammers have strengthened with Joel Veltman, Keiber Lamadrid and Manor Solomon, although Mateus Fernandes and Crysencio Summerville have departed. West Ham have won 40% of their last 10 matches, scoring 1.60 goals per game and conceding 1.10. The visitors also have the historical edge, winning 13 of their previous 24 meetings with Burnley.
As the Hammers have the stronger recent and H2H record, we believe that punters worldwide can find value in betting on Away Win. Additionally, BTTS and Over 2.5 goals markets seem appealing (58% of their last 24 meetings produced three or more goals).
This Championship match will be played on Sunday 16 August 2026 at 16:00.
