Yahoo Finance Newcastle vs West Ham prediction: How will Premier League fixture play out today?
Newcastle United host West Ham United in the Premier League on Sunday.
Steve Bruce‘s team are suddenly one of the most in-form sides in the top flight, after three wins in their last four including a resounding 4-1 win over Bournemouth on Wednesday.
The Hammers picked up a vital victory of their own by beating Chelsea on the same night, moving them three points and two places above the relegation zone.
They are still far from safe though and David Moyes‘ away record is dreadful – his side have lost every time in the league on the road since his return.

Both teams were boosted in midweek by important wins, with West Ham particularly grateful for the points.
Newcastle look to have found the right balance in recent weeks between defence and attack and another win here could push them very close to the top half.
