Confirmed West Ham team news against Newcastle as Moyes makes Zouma, Bowen and Coufal decisions

Vladimir Coufal has been dropped from the West Ham starting XI following a disappointing performance against Leicester City with Ryan Fredericks in the starting XI.

Moyes has made two changes to his backline with Kurt Zouma returning to the West Ham starting XI after recovering from the illness that saw him drop out of the team that drew 2-2 with Leicester City last weekend. Said Benrahma is also recalled to the team with Manuel Lanzini the man to miss out.

David Moyes' decision to recall Zouma sees Issa Diop replaced in the starting team despite his superb performance at the King Power Stadium last weekend. Zouma will therefore partner Craig Dawson in the heart of defence with Moyes' backline having a settled look to it.
