West Ham United vs Newcastle United Prediction, Line-ups, Injuries, How to Watch and Team News | Premier League

The Hammers go into a clash with the Magpies on Sunday as they remain desperate to secure a win in the Premier League. Nuno Espirito Santo is coming under pressure at West Ham after a winless start in the opening three games in charge at the London Stadium. West Ham United will now hope to turn things around as they are currently reeling in the relegation zone in 19th place with only four points. They have scored seven goals and conceded 20 till now, and out of nine matches, they have won only once and drawn once. Lucas Paqueta will be a big threat to the away side, as in 10 games so far, he has scored three goals.

On the other hand, Eddie Howe's Aston Villa side will be looking to get all three points from this fixture, as the Hammers' home form has been awful so far. The Magpies are sitting at the 12th spot with 12 points on the board, and won't be happy with their current standing in the league. They are in a period of transition as some key players have left the club, but still, they are very much capable of getting decent results in the upcoming clashes. So far, they have won three, lost three and drawn three matches in the Premier League. Nick Woltemade will be a big threat to the home side for sure, as in eleven matches he scored six goals.
