The final international break of 2024 is finally over and the focus shifts firmly to Newcastle United's Premier League campaign. It feels a long time since Harvey Barnes' goal which sealed a 3-1 win at Nottingham Forest, but Eddie Howe is hoping his side can pick up where they left off 15 days ago.

The Magpies head coach could have Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson back in the squad for tonight's game with West Ham at St James' Park, with both closing in on a return after spells on the sidelines. However, Dan Burn will sit this one out having picked up five bookings this season.

West Ham head north looking for a spark to ignite their season after some mixed results. They beat Manchester United in a game which spelled the end of Erik ten Hag at Old Trafford, but could only manager a goalless draw at Everton last time out, and have suffered heavy defeats to Tottenham and Nottingham Forest.

Early Newcastle United team news

Lloyd Kelly is set to come into the Newcastle side tonight in place of the suspended Dan Burn. Eddie Howe is otherwise short on central defensive options, with Sven Botmand and Jamaal Lascelles recovering from ACL surgery and Emil Krafth ruled out with a broken collarbone.

Kieran Trippier and Callum Wilson could be added to the squad if they came through weekend training unscathed, although Howe is likely to stick to same starting XI which performed so well at Nottingham Forest, minus Burn.

Who is the Newcastle United vs West Ham United referee?

Craig Pawson will take charge of his third Newcastle United game this evening - and the other two have been eventful. He sent off Fabian Schar in the opening-day win over Southampton, and awareded a penalty for United in their goalless draw at Everton after VAR spotted a foul on Sandro Tonali.

In fact, United have conceded only once in the last seven games Pawson has been the referee - and the was West Ham's goal in a 5-1 win at the London Stadium in 2023.
