Newcastle United come into the game against West Ham this weekend unbeaten in their last five Premier League fixtures, having won their last three games.
Kieran Trippier's goal made the difference in the narrow 1-0 victory against Aston Villa last time out, but the England international is set to miss the clash against the Hammers after fracturing a bone in his foot during the match. Chris Wood is set to lead the line once again and has a strong goalscoring record when facing West Ham, with the New Zealand striker still yet to score for the Magpies.
Eddie Howe praised Joelinton for his recent performances in the Newcastle midfield, with the Brazilian expected to start alongside Jonjo Shelvey and Joe Willock for a fourth consecutive game.
