West Ham, meanwhile, are four points above Newcastle in seventh, just three points behind Manchester United in sixth, and a strong end to the campaign could yet see them finish in the European places while also perhaps claiming Europa League glory. David Moyes' men are unbeaten in four in the league, and they would love to land what could be a 'hammer' blow to Newcastle's hopes of continental qualification here.
Newcastle United vs West Ham United
After such a successful campaign last time out in finishing in the top four, this season has been somewhat of a disappointment for Newcastle, who currently sit 10th in the Premier League and with their hopes of European qualification in serious doubt. They've lost three of their last five in all competitions, though the international break may give them renewed vigour as they bid to improve their fortunes.
