There were times last season when some West Ham fans were questioning whether David Moyes was the right man to lead the club forward. Those questions have been firmly answered thanks to a European trophy and a strong start to the new season. Only Liverpool and Man City have managed to beat the Hammers so far this season, and it is clear that Moyes has built a side capable of competing with the majority of Premier League teams.
A few weeks ago, the mood was slightly despondent at St James’ Park. Three wins in their opening four Premier League games had represented a poor start to the season. However, thanks to three consecutive league wins, a famous League Cup victory over Man City and a battling point at AC Milan in the Champions League, things are looking up for the Toon.
West Ham have won just one of their last eight games against the Magpies. Both sides have scored in seven of those eight games, with a total of 32 goals being scored in those eight games. Newcastle hold a 59-43 overall head-to-head lead in fixtures between the two teams.

Newcastle seem slightly short in the markets, especially given West Ham’s excellent recent form. Simply put, we think the odds for this game should be far closer than they currently are.
The Hammers are a tough team to beat at the London Stadium, and only Liverpool and Man City have won there this year. There is value in the 12.5 on a home win, but we think the 14.5 on a draw represents the best bet for this encounter.
