- Competition: Premier League
- Date: 2nd November, 2025
- Kickoff: 14:00 UK / 15:00 CET
- Venue: London Stadium
Sunday’s meeting at the London Stadium sees two clubs looking to arrest uncomfortable trends. West Ham, yet to win at home in 2025-26, will be desperate to scrape a result, while Newcastle arrive with momentum and a relatively healthier squad. Given the contrast in form and the underlying metrics to date, this promises to lean in favour of the visitors - though a disjointed West Ham defence could spring surprises.

Premier League
Historically, Newcastle hold the edge. Across their meetings, Newcastle have recorded 60 wins to West Ham’s 44, with 41 draws in 145 matches. Looking at more recent history, Newcastle have also prevailed over West Ham more often than not, winning 4 of their last 6 meetings away at West Ham and currently enjoying a six-game unbeaten run at the London Stadium.
West Ham team overview
West Ham’s 2025/26 season has been deeply troubling so far. After nine league matches, they have managed just one win, one draw, and seven defeats, collecting only four points and recording a goal difference of -13 (seven scored, 20 conceded) - currently the worst record in the Premier League. Last weekend, the Hammers suffered their third consecutive league defeat, losing 2-1 away to Leeds United. Their winless league run has now stretched to six matches, during which they have collected just one point and failed to score in three of those games.
West Ham also face a couple of injury concerns ahead of their clash with Newcastle. Konstantinos Mavropanos is ruled out for at least six weeks with a hamstring tear, while Oliver Scarles remains sidelined with a shoulder injury.

Newcastle team overview
Newcastle’s start to the 2025/26 campaign has been more stable. Eddie Howe’s side currently sit mid-table after nine matches, having collected 12 points with a balanced record of three wins, three draws, and three losses. Although their Premier League form has been somewhat inconsistent in recent weeks (W2 D2 L1), the Magpies have built solid momentum across all competitions. They head into this fixture on a three-game winning streak - spanning the Champions League, Premier League, and EFL Cup - and have impressively won five of their last six matches in all competitions.
Tino Livramento and Harrison Ashby remain unavailable due to knee and thigh injuries, respectively.

Prediction
Given all the pre-match information, it heavily favours Newcastle United. Their much better recent form (5 wins from 6 in all competitions) and superior recent underlying metrics offer an edge over a mentally weak West Ham side, especially one that has yet to win at home and is conceding at over 2 goals per match. The historical H2H data favours the Magpies too, therefore we predict another win for Newcastle.
Prediction: Newcastle to Win
Three reasons we expect Newcastle to Win
- Newcastle have beaten West Ham in 4 of the last 6 matches at the London Stadium.
- Newcastle have recorded 5 of the possible 6 wins in the Premier League in recent weeks.
- West Ham have lost 5 of their last 6 Premier League games.
