Newcastle vs. West Ham prediction

The defeat to Arsenal, especially with the Hammers being denied a late equaliser, was a huge blow to their survival hopes. However, a glimmer of hope came when Tottenham Hotspur could only draw with Leeds United.

The Hammers are just two points below Spurs, who play a London derby with Chelsea next Tuesday. West Ham are scrapping for survival, whilst Newcastle have little to play for. They are currently 14th in the division with no hope of European qualification.

Therefore, I expect West Ham to go to St. James' Park and get the win. It will not be easy, but the Hammers could be in for a 2-1 victory.
