The Premier League’s top three all win from the spot
Manchester United have made 20+ tackles in three Premier League games this season:
◉ 24 vs Crystal Palace
◉ 21 vs Norwich
◎ 21 vs Chelsea
Two of the three games have been under Ralf Rangnick.
Mohamed Salah scored his 14th Premier League goal of the season as Liverpool pipped Aston Villa to a 1-0 victory on Saturday.
Salah’s contribution at Anfield means he has either scored or assisted a goal in 14 consecutive league appearances, just one behind Jamie Vardy’s record of 15 games.
The Leicester City star achieved the feat between August and December 2015.
Following a goalless first 45 minutes, Salah earned Liverpool a penalty after he was brought down by Tyrone Mings and he stepped forward to convert into the back of the net in the 67th minute.
The Reds held on to the lead and it extended their unbeaten run at Anfield to 17 games while they handed former club captain Steven Gerrard his second defeat at the helm of Aston Villa.
Languishing in the 18th spot, Burnley could get out of the relegation zone with a win over West Ham, as they have a superior goal difference over Watford in the 17th. Even after the clash with the Hammers, the Clarets will still have another game in hand to ease themselves out of the danger zone.
Westham meanwhile, are riding high on confidence after a stunning result against Chelsea last weekend. The Hammers secured a late victory over the Premier League leaders with an incredible effort from Arthur Massuaku that beat Edouard Mendy.
West Ham sit firmly in the fourth spot, although there is tremendous pressure from teams behind them. Manchester United, in particular, sit level on points with the Hammers albeit having played a game more. With the Red Devils winning their game this weekend, the onus lies with David Moyes’ team to stretch their lead in the fourth spot.
Having rested a number of players in midweek, it seems reasonable to assume Moyes will look to bring back his more experienced names.
West Ham predicted XI: (3-4-3) Fabianski; Dawson, Rice, Diop; Coufal, Soucek, Lanzini, Masuaku; Bowen, Fornals, Antonio
Burnley have failed to win 16 of their last 17 Premier League matches.

West Ham United have lost their last two away games in the Premier League.
West Ham United secured a double over Burnley last season after losing the previous three to the Clarets.
West Ham United have only one victory in their last four Premier League games.
