West Ham United travel to Newcastle United on Sunday, with both teams having won midweek in the Premier League.

The Magpies are flying high after recent games and may be looking further up the table to a top-half finish, despite off-field distractions and a difficult first half of the season.

West Ham, on the other hand, still face a real battle to avoid relegation, though the win over Chelsea gives them breathing space.

David Moyes’ team are three points above the drop zone ahead of the game, but need to start finding a way to win points away from home.
