West Ham vs Newcastle: Predictions, Betting odds, Lineups, Preview

Explore Ladbrokes' detailed preview for West Ham vs Newcastle in the Premier League. Stats, odds, predictions, and lineups for the 14:00 GMT match.

• Fixture: West Ham vs Newcastle

• Date: Sunday, 02 November 2025

• Kick-off: 14:00 GMT

• Venue: London Stadium

West Ham's recent form has been a bit of a rollercoaster, with more downs than ups. They've struggled to find the back of the net, losing four out of their last five games. However, playing at home might give them a slight boost. They'll need to be more clinical in front of goal and tighten up at the back if they want to turn things around against Newcastle.

Newcastle, on the other hand, have shown they can be a bit unpredictable. They've had some solid wins at home but struggled away from St. James' Park. Their attack has been potent at times, but they'll need to be wary of West Ham's counter-attacking threat. This match could be tight, with both teams looking to exploit any weaknesses.

West Ham's recent form has been poor, with four losses in their last five games. They've struggled to score, managing only three goals in those matches. This lack of firepower could be a concern against a Newcastle side that has shown they can be dangerous going forward. However, playing at home might give them the confidence boost they need to turn things around.

• Loss: 0-2 vs Brentford (H)

• Loss: 0-2 vs Arsenal (A)

• Draw: 1-1 vs Everton (A)

• Loss: 1-2 vs Crystal Palace (H)

Newcastle have had a mixed bag of results recently, with two wins, two losses, and a draw in their last five games. They've been solid at home but have struggled on the road. Their attack has been good but not great, scoring six goals in those five matches. If they find their shooting boots for this game, they could pose a real threat to West Ham.

Recent Premier League results:

• Win: 2-1 vs Fulham (H)

• Loss: 1-2 vs Brighton (A)

• Win: 2-0 vs Nottingham Forest (H)

• Loss: 1-2 vs Arsenal (H)

The head-to-head record between these two teams has been closely contested recently. Newcastle won the last encounter 1-0, but West Ham had a convincing 2-0 victory in the match before that. The two teams have also played out a thrilling 4-3 win for Newcastle and a 2-2 draw in their recent meetings. This suggests we could be in for another exciting and competitive match.

With Paquetá and Bowen leading the attack, West Ham will look to exploit any gaps in Newcastle's defence. The midfield trio of Scarles, Souček, and Irving will need to control the game and provide the necessary support to the forwards.

Predicted lineup: Pope (GK), Trippier (DF), Thiaw (DF), Botman (if fit) (DF), Burn (DF), Guimaraes (MF), Miley (MF), Joelinton (MF), Murphy (AT), Woltemade (AT), Gordon (AT)

Newcastle's defence, led by Thiaw and Botman, will need to be solid to keep West Ham's attackers at bay. The midfield combination of Guimaraes, Miley, and Joelinton will be crucial in dictating the tempo and supporting the attack.

• Lucas Paquetá vs Malick Thiaw: This will be a key battle between West Ham's creative attacker and Newcastle's solid defender.

• Oliver Scarles vs Joelinton: This midfield duel could determine which team gains control of the game's tempo.

• Andrew Irving (West Ham): Irving's energy and work rate in midfield will be vital for West Ham's chances of getting a result.

• Anthony Gordon (Newcastle): Gordon's pace and directness on the wing could cause problems for West Ham's defence.
