High-flying Newcastle tonight welcome West Ham to St James’ Park.
Clearly, few would doubt David Moyes has struggled this time around even despite a hugely expensive summer outlay and the Scot remains under pressure. Still, having overcome Everton in a Premier League six-pointer before beating Derby in the FA Cup, perhaps things are on the rise.
Newcastle, meanwhile, are chasing Champions League qualification and recently booked their journey to Wembley in the Carabao Cup final later this month. Generally so strong at home, Eddie Howe’s side head in as favourites but the emotional high of midweek could allow West Ham to strike while the Magpies are on their way down.
