One footprint, two jobs. The hopper needs room above and the tray needs room in front, and both lines are judged.
Every figure this setup rests on, every check still open, and the source and day behind each one.
Will this setup work in your space?
All-in-one on the counter
Sources disagree, not used: Sources disagree on the power rating of a machine here, and one reading settles it.
Published sources disagree on the power rating of Barista Express Espresso Machine (BES870XL), so the draw on any circuit cannot be settled from them. A reading from the rating plate is the only thing that resolves it.

Do this firstMeasure the space behind the Barista Express Espresso Machine (BES870XL)
The one that decides the most is first, and how to do each is under it.
To do: Confirm: Confirm
Confirm the power rating of the Barista Express Espresso Machine (BES870XL) (sources disagree on wattage)
Without a sourced rating we cannot add up what the circuit carries.
How: Read the watts off the rating plate on the unit.

Measure the space beside the Barista Express Espresso Machine (BES870XL)
Knobs, steam wands and grinder hoppers need room to move.

Measure the space above the Barista Express Espresso Machine (BES870XL)
A lid or a bean hopper has to open without hitting a cabinet.
To do: Measure: Measure
Measure the room to lift the water tank out of the Barista Express Espresso Machine (BES870XL)
If the tank lifts out of the top, you need that much room above the machine, or you will pull the machine out to refill it.
The four questions
Space, power, budget, and how sure we are of each.
Fit
Will it fit the counter?
Likely, from published figures: Likely
Yes, based on published measurements. Fits open counter. Every figure behind this is a manufacturer's published dimension, and nobody has put a tape on one.
We cannot say. Sources disagree on the power rating of Barista Express Espresso Machine (BES870XL), so the power draw cannot be checked against this circuit

Open counter drawn to scale at 47.2 in (120 cm) by 23.6 in (60 cm). 1 item drawn from recorded envelopes: Barista Express Espresso Machine (BES870XL) 15.9 in (40.4 cm) by 13.1 in (33.3 cm). Operating clearance is not on record for any item, so the region around each one is drawn without a committed size and cannot be measured. At most 31.3 in (79.6 cm) of width is left over: 47.2 in (120 cm) available less 15.9 in (40.4 cm) of recorded envelope, with no clearance subtracted.
Where the sources disagree 1 figure on record, none used for fit
Setistry does not use this wattage for fit. A measurement of the unit is what settles it.

Used for fit
The full measurement table, with every figure we hold and where it came from
Every figure is marked with where it came from. A manufacturer or retailer number is a published claim, not a measurement; only “we measured” and “owner measured” are independent measurements. Operating clearances are the fields that decide real fit, and none have been recorded yet.
Space is judged against the station's stated width, depth and height, using each product's envelope and whatever operating clearances are on record. The check does not see an obstacle inside that gap - a cabinet overhang, a wall bracket, a splashback lip - or anything you keep on the counter that is not part of this setup.
Electrical load is the sum of the products declared here against one circuit profile. It does not see other appliances on the same circuit that this setup does not declare, the condition of your wiring, or a supply outside the regime the circuit names.
Pairings are recorded one by one. A pairing nobody has recorded reads as one we do not know about, which is not a finding that it works and not a finding that it does not.
