Newcastle vs West Ham: Prediction, TV channel, h2h results, team news, lineups, live stream, odds today
West Ham’s quest for Champions League football takes them north to Newcastle this afternoon as David Moyes’ side look to continue their unlikely top-four push.
After a massive win over Leicester on Sunday, the Hammers moved into the Premier League’s top four and with the Foxes in FA Cup semi-final action this weekend, Moyes’ men have a huge chance to solidify their position.
Jesse Lingard’s remarkable form continued with two goals against Leicester, with Jarrod Bowen also clicking into gear as the Irons have made light of Michail Antonio’s absence.
Newcastle, however, are on the back of a morale-boosting success themselves, having come from behind to beat Burnley last weekend, a result which took a huge step towards Premier League survival.

Newcastle vs West Ham prediction
It will be interesting to see how West Ham handle the pressure of a game they really should be winning if they are to finish in the top four, while Newcastle are resurgent - though perhaps not as desperate for points as they were a week ago.
2-1 away win.
