LONDON (Interstat) — West Ham United opened its Premier League season with a 3-2 victory over Burnley at London Stadium on Saturday.

The home side built a 3-0 lead with goals from Zian Flemming in the 35th minute, Callum Wilson in the 44th and Tomáš Souček in the 77th. Burnley mounted a late comeback with Kyle Walker-Peters scoring in the 87th minute before Josh Cullen added another in stoppage time, but the visitors fell short.

The result gives West Ham a winning start to the campaign, while Burnley begins with a loss. The final score defied a pregame projection of a 1-1 draw from Interstat.
