PREDICTING Nuno Espirito Santo’s side to start against [Burnley](https://www.claretandhugh.info/west-ham-v-burnley-preview-team-news-predicted-line-ups/) should be simple: In essence, there won’t be a Hammers fan who doesn’t hope and expect the starting eleven to be the same as in last weeks successful performance against Newcastle United.
However rumours of a Callum Wilson injury are something of a cloud on the horizon. With no other front man options, the Portuguese coach may well be forced into reshuffle if the veteran striker doesn’t recover in time: The options are to see Jarrod Bowen played centrally with a reshuffle across the front or perhaps Tomas Soucek reprise his front man role from last week.
Our best guess for Nuno’s West Ham starting XI takes the leap in faith that Callum Wilson – paid by appearance, remember, manages to tape himself back together:
WEST HAM UNITED – predicted starting XI:
----------------------------------------
Areola | Wan Bissaka, Kilman, Todibo, Diouf | Fernandes, Potts, Paquetá | Bowen, Wilson, Summerville
_(If Wilson doesn’t make it we’d guess Magassa starts in midfield and Paqueta as a false 9 again)_
