West Ham vs Newcastle Odds
West Ham Team News
In the last league match, West Ham defeated Sheffield United at home 2:0. They took the lead in the 24th minute when Vladimir Coufal played past Jarrod Bowen, he put the ball into the net, and they doubled the lead 13 minutes later, this time the scorer was Tomas Soucek, and Michail Antonio was the assistant. The result remained unchanged until the end of the match.
They currently occupy the seventh position in the table with 13 points, three less than the fourth-placed Liverpool. In the group stage of the Europa League, they triumphed in both matches, while in the EFL Cup, they eliminated Lincoln. In the last five competitive matches, they recorded four wins and one loss.
West Ham managed to beat Freiburg despite being without the services of leading scorer Michail Antonio, who was sidelined with a groin problem. Coach David Moyes could not confirm whether the Jamaican international will be ready for the away game against Newcastle this weekend. Antonio is not the only West Ham player recovering from a groin injury. Ben Johnson is also expected to miss this game for the same reason, while a thigh problem should keep Aaron Cresswell out until after the international break.
With the absence of Antonio in midweek, Moyes did not use an established striker and instead opted for Mohammed Kudus, Jarrod Bowen, Lucas Paqueta, and Pablo Fornals in attack, but the return of Tomas Soucek and Danny Ings will certainly threaten the latter’s place this weekend.

Newcastle Team News
In the previous round of the English Premier League, Newcastle defeated Burnley at home 2:0. They took the lead in the 14th minute with a goal by Miguel Almiron, while the assistant was Kierren Trippier, and they doubled their advantage in the 76th minute with Alexander Isak’s goal from the penalty spot, which was also the final result.
They currently have only one point less than their next rival West Ham, while in the group stage of the Champions League, they occupy the first position in the table, defeating PSG in the last round 4:1. In the EFL Cup, they also eliminated Manchester City with 1:0, and in the last five competitive matches, they recorded four wins and one draw.
Newcastle also, like Brighton, had to be without one of their experienced strikers in midweek, although this did not have a major impact on the result, and Callum Wilson will need a quick scan in the next few hours to return from a thigh problem. Joelinton is in the same position, but Sven Botman, Joe Willock, and Harvey Barnes will not return before the international break, while Anthony Gordon has collected five yellow cards and must now serve his suspension.
Gordon’s suspension was described as “difficult” by manager Eddie Howe, but Newcastle have a competent replacement in Jacob Murphy, while Jamaal Lascelles will continue to deputize for Botman after wearing the captain’s armband in his side’s historic win against PSG.

West Ham vs Newcastle Prediction
Newcastle, due to their excellent form and victory in the last match between them, is a slight favorite. However, we cannot bet on the victory of the guests with certainty, because West Ham has the home-field advantage. Also, we expect them to score at least one goal, so our bet proposal is a draw or Newcastle triumph, with both teams scoring at least one goal each.
