- Competition: Premier League
- Date: 25th November 2024
- Kick-off: 20:00 UTC / 21:00 CET
- Venue: St. James' Park
Newcastle United will be looking to register four consecutive wins for the first time this season when they welcome West Ham United to St. James' Park on Monday night.
Since the appointment of Eddie Howe as Newcastle manager in 2021, St James' Park has been a difficult venue for Premier League teams and other non-English top-flight sides. The Magpies have lost just one of their seven home games in all competitions this season, registering five and one draw. Having beaten Arsenal and Chelsea whilst drawing with champions Man City, Newcastle will be favourites going into Monday's clash.
West Ham United meanwhile have not been the same since the departure of David Moyes at the end of the 2023-24 campaign. The Hammers boast just three wins from their eleven Premier League games and suffered a humiliating 5:1 defeat at the hands of Liverpool in the EFL Cup second round. Having also gone into the international break without a win in two games, head coach Julen Lopetegui will be looking for a response on Monday.
Newcastle United vs West Ham United Betting Tips: Under 3.5 goals
One common phenomenon in games featuring Newcastle United at St. James' Park this season has been the absence of goals. The Magpies kept a clean sheet against Arsenal and Chelsea in the Premier League and EFL Cup respectively, while conceding just one goal against the likes of City and Spurs. Only one of Newcastle’s seven home games this season produced more than two goals.
West Ham United are struggling to score goals at the moment. The Hammers were held scoreless in their last two encounters and having scored under one goal in each of their last five meetings with Newcastle, Monday’s game is unlikely to feature many goals.
- Best Tip: Under 3.5 goals

Newcastle United team news
Dutch professional Sven Botman has returned to training following an ACL injury that has kept him out of action since March.
Monday’s game is likely to come too soon for Botman, but his return to training is a huge boost for Newcastle United who have at least three players in the recovery room.
Callum Wilson (back), Emil Krafth (broken collarbone) and Kieran Trippier (hamstring) are all set to miss the visit of West Ham United on Monday due to injuries.

Edson Álvarez is available for selection on Monday after serving his one match suspension for the red card against Liverpool last time out.
Niclas Füllkrug has only featured for West Ham United three times in the Premier League since his summer move from Borussia Dortmund.
The German professional has been out since September due to an Achilles tendon injury and Monday’s trip to St James’ Park will come too soon for him.
