Comments on the match West Ham vs Newcastle, 9:00 p.m. November 2: The "hammer" lost power

West Ham vs Newcastle form

West Ham's plan to replace their manager has not been effective. Despite parting ways with Graham Potter and appointing Nuno Santo to the hot seat, The Hammers are still struggling to find a way out of the dark tunnel.

Except for the debut match earning 1 point in Everton's visit to Hill Dickinson, West Ham under the former Nottingham strategist continuously lost in the last 3 rounds. In which, the 0-2 defeat at home to Brentford or the 1-2 loss to rookie Leeds destroyed the London team's hope of rising.

Of course, the season has only passed a quarter of the way and the gap between West Ham and the nearest safe spot is only 4 points, so the situation is not too dangerous. But if they do not improve their form and achievements soon, and continue to be stuck with their current form until the end of the first half, the Hammers will easily be left behind and sink into the red light group.

For many teams aiming to avoid relegation, home advantage often plays a very important role. However, at present, West Ham are not taking advantage of that advantage. In all 4 times hosting guests since the beginning of the season, the London team has played the role of the loser, scoring only 2 and conceding 12 goals.

It is worth mentioning that all four of the above losses were at the hands of neighboring opponents such as Chelsea, Tottenham, Brentford or Crystal Palace. Newcastle will be the first non-capital visitors to visit the London stadium.

Comments on the match West Ham vs Newcastle, 9:00 p.m. November 2: The — Newcomer Nick Woltemade continues to shine in Newcastle's shirt

In all aspects, the away team has more than enough confidence to complete the task of 3 points. Because besides the poor performance of the home team, the army under coach Eddie Howe has been playing very well in the past month.

In 6 appearances in October, Newcastle won 5 and lost only 1. Stability has started to return and now is the time for The Magpies to focus on accelerating to improve their 12th position on the rankings.

Along with the visitors' improvement, it is easy to see the bright spot named Nick Woltemade. While Alexander Isak struggled to find a foothold at Anfield, the new German striker continuously shined to bring important victories to the young masters of the Northeast.

In addition to the above factors, history is also on Newcastle’s side. In the last 6 visits to West Ham’s home, the away team has never tasted defeat, winning 4 and drawing 2.
