West Ham will look to ride the wave of their Europa League win earlier this week with a victory over Newcastle United. The Irons will host Eddie Howe’s side at the London Stadium on Sunday, who are currently behind them by just one point in the table.
West Ham may be without Michail Antonio following the latest injury updates, which could spell out a reshuffle in David Moyes’ attack. The 33-year-old did not travel with the team for their midweek clash against SC Freiburg, and the manager will make a decision on his fitness ahead of Newcastle.
With that in mind, we’ve predicted how West Ham could line up to face the Magpies on Sunday as they look to keep their fine form going.
