"As for West Ham, they go for experience, Callum Wilson surprisingly replacing Taty Castellanos. Share Newcastle make two changes to the side which drew at Forest. In come Kieran Trippier, making his last appearance at SJP and what an impact he's had and Harvey Barnes, with Dan Burn and Joelinton dropping out."
West Ham will aim to crowd the center to force Newcastle to go around them, while still having the quality to play through if moments are chosen. Bowen and Summerville can be decisive on the counter, pushing forward with fewer defensive responsibilities. Nuno is expected to drive El-Hadjo Diouf down the left to deliver crosses for Wilson, with Tomas Soucek also a threat at set-pieces. Newcastle will use Woltemade as a pivot, with Barnes, Ramsey, and Osula attacking space in behind. Trippier and Lewis Hall will provide width for crosses, especially high ones. Bruno Guimaraes and Sandro Tonali will control midfield against West Ham’s trio. Newcastle make two changes, bringing in Trippier and Barnes, while West Ham start with Wilson replacing Castellanos.
