Premier League on Sky Sports: West Ham vs Newcastle betting preview and tips

Super Sunday kicks off at the London Stadium as a struggling West Ham side take on a resurgent Newcastle.

The Hammers are desperate to stop their slide after a tough run that has left them with just one league win from nine.

Newcastle, meanwhile, head south full of confidence following an impressive run of results in all competitions.

Here, Sports News Blitz outlines all the best bets and key stats ahead of the clash.

The tale so far

West Ham’s only win this season came under former manager Graham Potter when they defeated Nottingham Forest.

Since taking over, former Forest gaffer Nuno Espírito Santo has earned just one point from four games, underlining the task ahead to turn the team’s fortunes around.

With pressure mounting, a home win could be vital to lift spirits in east London.

Newcastle, in contrast, arrive in excellent form, winning four of their last five matches across all competitions.

Their Premier League victories over Forest and Fulham have been complemented by Champions League wins against Royal Union Saint-Gilloise and Benfica.

A midweek Carabao Cup triumph over Tottenham only added to that momentum ahead of this trip to the capital.
