West Ham enjoyed a strong start to the season, and while the party atmosphere in East London was slightly disrupted by back-to-back defeats against Man City and Liverpool, the positive vibe has returned following a convincing win against Sheffield Utd. The Hammers are also competing in the Europa League this year after winning the Europa Conference League last season and claimed a hard-fought victory over SC Freiburg on Thursday night. David Moyes will need to ensure there’s no European hangover for his side as they face a Newcastle side that look back to their best in recent weeks.
After a rocky start to the season which saw the Magpies lose three of their first four matches (against Man City, Liverpool and Brighton), Newcastle are now flying high once again. Not only have they won their last three Premier League games in a row, but they also knocked Man City out of the Carabao Cup, and earlier this week earned the praise of the footballing world for thrashing French champions PSG 4-1 in the Champions League. It was a result that will live long in the memory of the Geordie faithful, but a trip to West Ham will present a challenge, and Eddie Howe’s men will need to be on top of their game if they want their winning streak to continue.
Here's how they line up:
West Ham: Areola, Coufal, Zouma, Aguerd, Emerson, Soucek, Alvarez, Bowen, Ward-Prowse, Paqueta, Antonio.
Newcastle: Pope, Trippier, Lascelles, Schar, Burn, Longstaff, Tonali, Guimaraes, Anderson, Almiron, Isak.
Both these sides may be a little tired after their midweek European matches, but the West Ham vs Newcastle live stream should still be a thrilling encounter between two sides that have already shown their quality this season. Here’s how to watch it online from anywhere.
