West Ham United vs Newcastle United Preview

West Ham United vs Newcastle United

Competition – Barclays Premier League

Stadium: London Stadium

Date: 10th March 2025

Kick-off time – 20:00 GMT

West Ham will look to make it three Premier League wins in a row when they host Newcastle United this Monday.

The Hammers have won their last two league games without conceding, representing a major improvement under Graham Potter, who lost four of his first six competitive games in charge. He now has an opportunity to lead West Ham to three straight league wins for the first time since 2023.

Doing so will see West Ham record their first league double over Newcastle in six years after a 2-0 reverse win, which coincidentally also took place on a Monday. However, the hosts have lost most of their league games against clubs starting the round in the top six places (W2, L7), including all four such home games by multiple-goal margins.

Meanwhile, Newcastle United will look to return to winning ways when they travel to London on Monday. Once considered one of the serious sides in the top six race, some inconsistent league form over the last five rounds (W2, L3) has left Newcastle floundering in their attempts to secure a European place.

Their fate remains in their own hands for now, though, and Magpies boss Eddie Howe enters this clash with a notable edge against both the Hammers and their boss. The Newcastle coach has lost just once against Potter (W3, D1, L1) whilst avoiding defeat in 11 of his last 13 touchline meetings with West Ham (W5, D6, L2).

His side will take any inspiration they can find as they travel here on the back of consecutive away league defeats during which they conceded six unanswered goals. Now at risk of falling to three straight away Premier League losses without scoring for the first time since 2020/21, an injury-hit Newcastle travel with the additional dilemma of knowing they have the Carabao Cup final next weekend.
