West Ham defender Winston Reid says the Friday Night Football clash with Brighton is a must-win game for Slaven Bilic's men.
Ten-man West Ham were denied three points on Saturday when Chris Wood's 85th-minute header salvaged a 1-1 draw for Burnley, and Reid is looking for an immediate response against Brighton at the London Stadium, live on Sky Sports Premier League.
The Hammers sit 15th in the Premier League table, level on points with Brighton, who they will face without banned striker Andy Carroll after he was sent off against Burnley at the weekend.
The defender told the club's website: "We will look to bounce back, we have a game against Brighton on Friday night and we have to win that game.
"[Burnley] have had a good start to the season, but for me personally we have better players than them and that is no disrespect to Burnley.
"We had a very poor first three games and we have had some injuries, but we have got just about all our injured players back now and you could see there are good players that can't even get onto the bench.
"Hopefully we will do well this season, but we need to start picking up some more wins so that we can get further up the table."
