Newcastle’s top 4 bid takes a big step forward here, as they travel to West Ham, in what feels like a big game for both clubs. Graham Potter is still settling into life in charge of West Ham, but recent signs have been relatively positive for the Hammers, and they will be looking to build upon that here. Newcastle meanwhile crashed out of the FA Cup at the hands of Brighton last week and need to bounce back here. Monday Night Football seldom disappoints, and this should be a belter in East London.

West Ham United vs Newcastle United Analysis
Both sides have bagged plenty of goals this term and this could be a very good game for all punters and EPL betting sites.
West Ham United
Clear improvements have been evident since Graham Potter took over at West Ham, but the Hammers know that they need to see sustained improvement before optimism can fully build. Wins over Leicester and Arsenal have boosted the mood at the London Olympic Stadium and with some key players returning from injury, West Ham look well placed to finish the season as strongly as possible.
Team news: Michail Antonio, Crysencio Summerville, Nicolas Fullkrug and Lucas Paqueta will all miss out here for West Ham.
West Ham United Predicted Lineup:
Fabianski, wan-Bissaka, Cresswell, Tadibo, Kilman, Scarles, Ward-Prowse, Soucek, Alvarez, Bowen & Kudus.
Newcastle United
The Carabao Cup final looms large for Newcastle at the end of this week but for now, the priority will be the Premier League and this tricky looking trip to West Ham United. Toon have been pushing on for a top 4 spot all season and are beginning to look like a side that could crack it but their FA Cup defeat to Brighton will rankle a touch with supporters. They need to keep winning games and despite some patchy form, they are still the favourites for this one at West Ham with most Premier League betting sites.
Team news: Sven Botman and Jamal Lascelles remain out of action for the Magpies.
Newcastle United Predicted Lineup:
Pope, Livramento, Burn, Schar, Hall, Tonali, Guimaraes, Joelinton, Murphy, Isak & Gordon.
West Ham United vs Newcastle United Prediction
Both West Ham and Newcastle could do with a win here but in essence, for quite different reasons. West Ham are beginning to improve slightly under Graham Potter, and this feels like a bit of a litmus test in terms of their ambitions this term. Newcastle are going pretty well under Eddie Howe though and could prevail in this one.
Prediction: Newcastle United to win the match – 5/4 (+125) – Rhino Bet.
West Ham United vs Newcastle United – The Ultimate Bet
Newcastle United to win & BTTS – 3/1 (+300) – Fitzdares
This could be quite a free-flowing encounter at the London Olympic Stadium and Toon should have the firepower to come out on top.
