Newcastle vs West Ham Prediction & Betting Tips (25 November)

Close to European qualification last year, Newcastle hope to achieve it this season. The Magpies now occupy 8th place in the Premier League, a small point behind 3rd place. Authors of an interesting start to the championship from an accounting point of view, if not attractive, they then marked time by stringing together 5 unsuccessful matches, 2 draws and 3 defeats. Fortunately, Newcastle resumed its march forward during the last two days with victories against Arsenal 1-0 and Nottingham Forest 1-3. Author of a previous disappointing exercise, West Ham is struggling even more at the start seasonal.

The London team is currently 14th in the Premier League with only 12 points taken in 11 games. We will quickly have to find solutions or risk experiencing a very anonymous season. After gaining the upper hand over Manchester United 2-1 , the Hammers accounted for their shortcomings by losing to Nottingham Forest 3-0. On the last day, West Ham was held to a draw at home by poorly ranked Everton 0-0 .

For this meeting, Newcastle must do without the starting defenders Trippier and Botman, the important attacker Wilson and the replacement Lascelles, insufficiently recovered from their physical problems. Swedish international Isak (4 goals and 2 assists in PL) plays a major role for the Magpies as does winger Gordon (2 goals in PL). In the midfield, executives Bruno Guimares and Tonali take their places. Sometimes replacing, winger Barnes (4 goals in PL) still displays great efficiency.

West Ham still cannot count on the solid German striker Fullkrug, injured. Added to this are the suspensions of starters Edson Alvarez (midfielder) and Kudus (winger) as well as the uncertainty surrounding the participation of French goalkeeper Areola. In the offensive sector, Paqueta (2 goals in PL) and Bowen (3 goals and 2 assists in PL) are the most influential elements.
