Newcastle have lost just one of their last 10 Premier League games against West Ham (W5 D4) and are unbeaten in all five against the Hammers under Eddie Howe (W2 D3).

West Ham haven’t kept a clean sheet in any of their last 10 Premier League games against Newcastle, though they’ve only failed to score themselves in one of the last 13, with both teams finding the net in each of the last seven meetings between them.

Newcastle have won their last two Premier League games, and are looking to win three in a row for the first time since September 2023 – this is the sixth occasion since that they have won twice in a row in the league.

West Ham have kept just two clean sheets in their last 28 Premier League away games, conceding 66 goals (2.4 per game). Indeed, in 2024, they have conceded more away goals in the top-flight (35) than any side.

Along with Liverpool, Newcastle are one of two clubs yet to drop a single point from a winning position in the Premier League this season. The Magpies have won each of the last 10 matches in which they have led at any point in the Premier League, their longest such run since winning 11 in a row from February to August 2006.

West Ham have failed to score in their last two league games, as many as their previous 14 beforehand. Only once since the start of last season have they gone three league matches without a goal, doing so in February.

Newcastle have used fewer players (19) than any other side in the Premier League this season, while only Crystal Palace (4) have seen fewer players score for them (excl. own goals) in the division this term than the Magpies (5).

Newcastle’s Alexander Isak has scored in all three of his Premier League games against West Ham, netting a brace in both meetings with the Hammers last term. No Newcastle player has scored multiple goals in three consecutive Premier League meetings with an opponent before, while no player has ever done so against West Ham either.

Only Jørgen Strand Larsen (16) has made more hold-ups while retaining possession in the Premier League this season than West Ham’s Michail Antonio (15). Antonio is retaining possession with 71% of his hold-ups in the competition this term (15/21), the highest ratio of any player to attempt 10+.

Only against Aston Villa (9) has Newcastle’s Harvey Barnes been directly involved in more Premier League goals than he has against West Ham (8 – 6 goals, 2 assists). He’s either scored or assisted in each of his last four against the Hammers (4 goals, 1 assist), finding the net in each of the last three.
