St James' Park

High-flying Newcastle United are set to take on relegation-threatened West Ham United on 4th February at the St. James Stadium. This is both the team's first match of February and would want to start it with a win.

Newcastle has made the most remarkable comeback this season and is flying high sitting comfortably in third position, with 3 points clear along with a game in hand over fifth-placed Tottenham Hotspur. They have made a remarkable turnaround from last season where they finished eleventh with 49 points. They have already claimed 39 points from 20 games this season and are looking to go way past their points tally from last season.

On the other hand, West Ham United, one of the most amazing teams from last season, is surely struggling this season. They finished last season with 56 points in the seventh position and are well below par to match that points tally this season. They sit in a difficult position this season as they are only three points away from the bottom of the table.

Facts

  • Newcastle United have lost only one game throughout the Premier League season and that one loss came against Liverpool early in September. They are joint top with the lowest losses this season along with Arsenal.
  • West Ham United won all their six games in their first appearance in the UEFA Conference League this season. However, they have only won five out of their 20 games in the PL this season which is a startling contrast.

Statistics on Newcastle United vs West Ham United

Newcastle's defence is one of the most difficult to break this season. They have conceded the fewest goals this season, 11. The second defence in the league is Arsenal who have conceded 16 goals which are five more than third-placed Newcastle United.

West Ham United

Their away record is something to be ashamed of as they have only won one game out of their nine away games this season. They have collected only five points out of a possible 27 which is a poor record.

Our Prediction
