West Ham vs Newcastle: betting tip and bets with odds of 2.65

Current form

For the first time this season in the Premier League, West Ham were able to win two in a row. Moreover, we managed to win back to zero in two successful matches. First, a 1-0 victory over Arsenal was recorded on the road in the London derby. The outsider Lester was defeated at home (2-0). In these matches, we note the clear realization of the moments. We scored two shots on target with the foxes, and both turned out to be accurate. The Gunners also had two shots on goal, one of which ended with Bowen's goal.

Even with the six points scored in the previous two rounds, West Ham is only in 16th place in the standings. The team has no special prospects. The gap from the relegation zone is a solid 16 points, and it is unlikely that we will even be able to compete for a place in the top 10, given the nine-point gap. Nevertheless, gradually, under the leadership of Graham Potter, the game of the hammers is stabilizing, and the Londoners should not be underestimated now.

West Ham is traditionally famous for its domestic successes, but this season not everything is working out in London. Since the beginning of the season, the Hammers have played 14 matches on their own field, in which they scored a modest 17 points – this is only the 16th figure in the Premier League. It should be noted that West Ham suffered seven defeats at their stadium.

Disqualifications and injuries

Fulkrug, Antonio and Summerville will not play today due to injuries. The entry of Tsoufal and the Package into the field is questionable.

Interesting betting trends

• West Ham have won in the first half in three of their last five matches.
• In the six previous matches of the Hammers in the Premier League, no more than three goals were scored.
• In the previous 12 Premier League matches, West Ham scored more than one goal only twice.
• In the previous six matches in the championship, the Londoners did not win in the second 45 minutes (three draws and three defeats)

Approximate composition: Areola – Cresswell, Kilman, Todibo–Van-Bisaka, Alvarez, Soucek, Ward-Prause, Scarles–Kudus, Bowen.

Current form

A few rounds ago, Newcastle was one of the coveted four strongest, but it slowed down somewhat. In two rounds in a row, the Magpies lost at home to Fulham (1:2) and away to Manchester City (0:4). This was followed by a home victory over Nottingham Forest (4:3), but it was not possible to build on the success – the team could not resist Liverpool (0:2). As you can see, Eddie Howe's players are not very stable right now, and it's not easy to predict how they will play in a single match.

In the standings, Newcastle is only in ninth place, with 44 points on its account. However, the density in the results is very serious, and a victory today will immediately allow Manchester City to catch up on points from fifth place. Chelsea are currently five points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.

It should be noted that Newcastle is not playing in European competitions this season, but it is performing well in national tournaments. In the League Cup, the Magpies made it to the finals. In the FA Cup a week ago, we were close to reaching the quarter-finals, but lost to Brighton in extra time.

Disqualifications and injuries

Lascelles, Lewis, Botman and Hall will not play due to injuries. The big problem will be the absence of Gordon, who received a red card in the previous game.

Interesting betting trends

• In four of the last five matches, Newcastle have not won in the first half.
• For 13 consecutive matches in the Premier League, Newcastle has not played a draw.
• In six of the previous seven away games of the Magpies in the Premier League, at least two goals were scored in the second half.
• In seven of Newcastle's last eight league matches, three or more goals have been scored.

Approximate line–up: Pope – Trippier, Bern, Cher, Livramento – Guimaraes, Tonali, Joelinton - Murphy, Isak, Willock.
