Key Players:
Analysis:
Newcastle United have been dismal in the tournament and therefore are languishing at the bottom of the table. However, they have found themselves in form off late and have picked up pace. They won their previous game against Burnley and looked in good shape in that game. Jacob Murphy and Saint-Maximin scored and made sure Newcastle win the game. They are also out of the relegation zone and this will be a huge positive for them.
West Ham, however, have been in superlative form in the Premier League, and a win in this game would shift them to the third position in the table and would solidify their chances of finishing in the top-four. West Ham are coming on the back off two victories against Leicester City and the Wolves and will be brimming with confidence. Jesse Lingard netted a brace in the previous game and he will be a very important member in the team.
