Comments:

League position: 9th West Ham United had now won just two of their last 13 Premier League matches, and had scored just four goals in their last eight games. By Mark Noble scoring from the penalty spot, the Hammers became the last club to convert a spot-kick in this Premier League season.

Comments:

League position: 20th This defeat meant that Burnley would have to win all of their last three games to have any chance of avoiding relegation to the League Championship. The Clarets had now scored just one goal in their last nine Premier League matches and none in their last six. Defeat meant they had lost four in a row, their worst losing sequence of the season. Michael Duff was sent-off after 23 minutes for 'denying an obvious goalscoring opportunity'. However, his claim for wrongful dismissal was upheld and the red card withdrawn.
