The Hammers, flying high under Graham Potter, are aiming for a rare league double over Newcastle, while the Magpies, struggling with consistency, need a result to boost their European hopes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">West Ham\u2019s Momentum Under Potter<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>West Ham have turned their fortunes around, going from a slow start under Potter to back-to-back Premier League victories without conceding a goal. Their recent surge has put them in a comfortable position, 16 points clear of the relegation zone. However, facing top-six sides has been their Achilles\u2019 heel, with just two wins in nine such encounters this season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Potter\u2019s side will need to break this trend to secure their first league double over Newcastle in six years. Encouragingly, their previous win over the Magpies (2-0) also came on a Monday, adding a sense of d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu to the occasion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Newcastle\u2019s Struggles and Injury Woes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Newcastle, under Eddie Howe, have been inconsistent in recent weeks (W2, L3) and come into this fixture on the back of consecutive away defeats. Their defensive frailties have been exposed, conceding six unanswered goals in their last two away games. To make matters worse, their minds could be distracted by the upcoming Carabao Cup final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One positive for Newcastle is Howe\u2019s strong record against both West Ham and Potter. He has avoided defeat in 11 of his last 13 meetings against the Hammers and has beaten Potter three times in five encounters. If Newcastle are to turn their fortunes around, they will need to channel this dominance into a strong performance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250308-115825-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"West Ham vs Newcastle \u2013 Expert Prediction &amp; Analysis\" class=\"wp-image-9508\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250308-115825-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250308-115825-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250308-115825-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250308-115825-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250308-115825-696x696.png 696w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250308-115825-1068x1068.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/20250308-115825.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Photo courtesy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Players to Watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Tom\u00e1\u0161 Sou\u010dek (West Ham)<\/strong> \u2013 The midfielder has a knack for scoring early goals and was instrumental in their last win against Newcastle.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Harvey Barnes (Newcastle)<\/strong> \u2013 With six goals in ten appearances against West Ham, Barnes is a proven threat who could haunt the Hammers once again.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prediction: Can Newcastle Overcome Their Away Woes?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>West Ham\u2019s defensive resilience and Newcastle\u2019s struggles on the road point to a tight contest.
