West Ham starting lineup vs Newcastle confirmed:
Lukasz Fabianski, Vladimir Coufal, Nayef Aguerd, Angelo Ogbonna, Thilo Kehrer, Emerson, Declan Rice, Lucas Paqueta, Jarrod Bowen, Michail Antonio, Said Benrahma
West Ham head to St James’ Park this evening to take on Newcastle in a game that is absolutely huge for both sides.
David Moyes’s men will have to be on top of their game today, if they are to have any chance whatsoever of getting a positive result against the Magpies.
Eddie Howe has his Newcastle side very well drilled and they can be potent inside the final third as well.
It should be a really interesting contest on Tyneside this evening, and the Hammers cannot afford any passengers…
West Ham starting lineup vs Newcastle confirmed
David Moyes has made one change from the team that beat Everton two weeks ago at the London Stadium.
In comes Thilo Kehrer in place of Kurt Zouma. Meanwhile, Tomas Soucek has been dropped Fromm our win over Derby on Monday night.
The key to today’s match for West Ham will be for the players to be brave in possession. Newcastle operate one of the most aggressive presses in the Premier League, if not the most aggressive.
The Hammers midfielders have to take the ball in tight areas from the defenders and as hard as it may be, they have to try and play through the press.
A point would be a good result this evening for West Ham, but who knows, if the players are on top form, a win will certainly be attainable.
Let’s just hope that the players turn up and be counted.
